MN-91 1948 (Minnesota) (Road Sign) Shot Glass 1.5oz

Black lettering on white reads MINNESOTA above the route number 91, set inside a rounded square like a state highway marker.

Visual Elements & Composition

The panel is split by a single horizontal line. The state name fills the upper section and the numeral 91 takes the lower one, both in heavy, evenly weighted characters. White covers most of the field, with black used only for type and the divider, so the sign has the stark, uncluttered look of a roadside plate. Every shape is flat and every edge is sharp, with no gradient or texture to soften the message.

Meaning & Symbolism

The design is a plain numbering system made visible. A state name paired with a route number tells a traveller which road they are on, and the format follows the standard highway signage that Minnesota used for its designated routes in the mid-twentieth century. The 1948 date ties the piece to that postwar expansion of the road network, when numbered routes were being mapped and marked across the state. It works as a record of how the highways were named rather than a picture of any one road.

On a Shot Glass

A shot glass is small and is picked up and lifted close to the face, so the sign is read at arm's length in a single glance. The rounded body carries the divider line around the glass, which keeps the state name and the number 91 visible from the front. It is a tidy, graphic piece for a home bar or a shelf of travel souvenirs, where a route sign can stand in for a trip.

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.
