MN-39 1920 (Minnesota) (Road Sign) Shot Glass 1.5oz

A square yellow marker with a black circle and five-pointed star at its centre, carrying the route number thirty-nine from Minnesota's early trunk highway system.

Visual Elements & Composition

Yellow forms the sign panel, and black forms the circle, star and numeral. The composition is built on a single centre point: the black badge sits in the middle of the square, with the star inside it and the number 39 set within that. There is no state name on this marker, so the numeral and the symbol are the whole message. The flat vector treatment keeps the hard edges and simple contrast of an early sign.

Meaning & Symbolism

The 1920 date marks the year Minnesota created its trunk highway system under the Babcock Amendment, and the star-in-circle was one of the first ways those main roads were identified. Early markers of this kind were stencilled on telephone poles before they moved to standalone panels, and they stayed in use until the state replaced them with white shield designs in 1934. The design honours a short, formative chapter of Minnesota's road history.

Set Close on the Bar

A shot glass is small and sits close to the hand, so the black badge is read at near range rather than from across a room. The strong contrast of the star against the yellow holds its shape as the glass is lifted and turned.

Compact, heavy-based shot glasses made from clear, restaurant-grade glass. One standard size (1.5 oz / ≈44.3 ml) — sturdy, stack-friendly, and built to handle frequent service without fuss.

These shot glasses feel solid in the hand thanks to a thick, weighty base that keeps them steady on busy bar tops. The walls are even and clear, giving a nice, unobstructed view of the pour; the rim is smoothed for comfortable sipping.

They’re engineered for regular use: consistent dimensions, dependable weight, and a simple silhouette that suits both casual venues and more formal tasting counters. Designed to perform rather than show off.

  • Material: 100% clear glass for pure clarity and clean presentation.
  • Capacity: 1.5 oz (≈44.3 ml) — standard shot measure.
  • Base: heavy solid glass base that reduces tipping and improves balance.
  • Construction: restaurant-grade durability for frequent handling and washing.
  • Print-ready: suitable for single-sided print applications that withstand typical use.

Perfect for quick pours, samplers, and neat shots. Their compact footprint makes them easy to place on trays and tasting lines, while the heavier base keeps things steady during service.

  1. Bar service: quick, consistent pours — less wobble when carrying a tray of shots.
  2. Tastings: uniform size is handy for sampling flights or spirit tastings.
  3. Events: robust enough for pop-ups, festivals, and busy bartending shifts.

Storage tip: store upright and avoid tight stacking to protect rims and preserve clarity.

Dishwasher-safe for everyday cleaning — place on the top rack and use a normal household cycle. Repeated exposure to very high commercial temperatures can shorten glass life, so choose gentler programs where practical.

When you want to extend clarity and finish: hand-wash with warm water, a mild detergent, and a soft cloth; dry right away to avoid water spots. Handle by the body (not the rim) to reduce accidental chipping.

One size only: 1.5 oz (≈44.3 ml). Use the dimensions below for shelving, packaging, or tray planning.
