MN-80 1948 (Minnesota) (Road Sign) Shot Glass 1.5oz

A plain black-and-white Minnesota road sign, with the state name above a horizontal divider and the route number 80 below it.

Visual Elements & Composition

White dominates the sign, with black used for the rounded-corner square badge, the divider and the lettering. MINNESOTA runs across the upper band and the number 80 fills the lower one. The layout is centred and symmetrical, and the two-tone palette keeps the focus on the type. The route number is the largest element and reads first.

Meaning & Symbolism

The sign reproduces a 1948 marker, a period when state route signs were built around clear lettering and a number that drivers could pick out at speed. Naming the state on the sign told travellers which jurisdiction they were in, and the number told them which road. The plain treatment reflects post-war highway design, before the state's later blue and gold markers changed the look of its roads.

Sitting on the Shot Glass

A shot glass is small and held close, so the divider and route number become a detail to read over the rim. The black type sits crisply against the clear glass, and the sign comes into view as the glass is turned in the hand.

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.
