MN-93 1948 (Minnesota) (Road Sign) Shot Glass 1.5oz

A white rounded-corner panel carries MINNESOTA over the route number 93, drawn in flat black like a state highway marker.

Visual Elements & Composition

The sign is divided into two horizontal bands by one clean rule. The state name runs across the top band and the numeral 93 sits beneath it, both in the same bold black lettering. White makes up most of the surface, so the black type reads with real punch. There is no ornament or illustration; the design depends entirely on the proportion of the panel and the spacing of its characters.

Meaning & Symbolism

A route marker tells a driver where they are and which road they are following. This one pairs the name of the state with a numbered designation, the same logic that governed Minnesota's trunk highway signs in the late 1940s. The year 1948 sets the piece in that period of postwar road building, when numbered routes were being standardised and marked across the state. The sign is best understood as a document of that system, a small record of how the roads were identified.

On a Shot Glass

A shot glass is lifted close and held at eye level for a moment before it is emptied, so the sign is read up near the face. The curve of the glass wraps the divider line around the body, keeping the state name and the number 93 in view together. Set on a shelf or a bar cart, it works as a compact piece of road memorabilia.

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.
