MN-47 1948 (Minnesota) (Road Sign) Shot Glass 1.5oz

This design shows a Minnesota State Highway 47 shield in black and white, with the state name over the route number in a 1948-era layout.

Visual Elements & Composition

The design is a flat, two-tone panel. A square shield with rounded corners is split horizontally, with MINNESOTA in the upper band and the numeral 47 in the lower. Black carries the lettering on a white ground, and the arrangement is centred and minimal. Nothing extends beyond the shield, so the state name and route number read as one tidy block.

Meaning & Symbolism

The year 1948 is the point when Minnesota moved to state-outline shields, and this shield form belongs to that later generation of route markers. Route 47 is presented as one road in the state's numbered network, so the piece works as a record of how Minnesota signed its highways in the mid-century years. Its restrained palette suits that archival character.

Reading the Shield on the Glass

A shot glass is small and held close, so the divided shield and the bold 47 come straight into view as the glass is lifted. Clean lettering suits a small object, and it gives the glass a quiet piece of Minnesota road history to carry.

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.
