MO-17 1920 (Missouri) Pint Glass Design

This pint glass celebrates the early days of Missouri's state highway system, specifically the iconic MO-17 road sign design from around 1920. The artwork directly mirrors the original marker used before the widespread adoption of the U.S. Highway System.

Visual Elements

The design prominently features the unmistakable shape of the State of Missouri. This irregular shield, carefully following the state's borders, forms the core of the design.

Within this silhouette, a bold "17" is centered, denoting the historic Route 17. The numerals are rendered in black, echoing the simple, direct style of the early signage. The design's simplicity reflects the era, when clear communication was paramount.

The background of the Missouri outline is rendered in crisp white, contrasting starkly with the black numerals and black border that frames the state's shape. The contrast creates a visual impact that would have been highly visible along the roads of Missouri during the early 1920s.

Meaning and Symbolism

The design pays homage to Missouri's pioneering spirit in road infrastructure. Before the national U.S. Highway System, Missouri was establishing its own numbered state route network. This sign design symbolizes the state's forward-thinking approach to transportation and the development of a modern highway system.

The inclusion of the state's outline reinforces the sense of place, pride, and belonging. It's a visual reminder of the unique history of Missouri and the importance of its roads in connecting communities and fostering growth.

Clear 16 oz (≈0.47 L) pint glasses made from solid glass with a heavy base for steady placement. Narrower at the bottom for an easier grip and balanced feel — durable, dishwasher-safe, and ideal for both serving and mixing.

These pints are crafted from 100% clear glass that showcases the drink inside — color, clarity and carbonation are all visible. A heavier, solid base reduces tipping and gives the glass a satisfying weight in the hand while the gently tapered body makes holding and carrying more comfortable.

Built to last, the construction resists chipping under normal use and is suitable for busy service environments as well as retail display. One-sided print work reads bright against the clear surface; the overall aesthetic is clean and modern.

  • Material: 100% clear glass for pure clarity and gloss.
  • Capacity: 16 oz (standard U.S. pint / ≈0.47 L).
  • Base: heavy solid glass base reduces tipping and improves balance.
  • Shape: narrower bottom for a comfortable grip and easier carrying.
  • Durability: dishwasher-safe and built for regular use.

Use these glasses for draft pours, mixed drinks, iced beverages and more. Their clear walls show off color and bubbles, which makes them a great choice for menus, tasting flights, and bars where presentation matters.

  1. Serving: ideal for beers, sodas, iced teas and cocktails served cold.
  2. Mixing: also works as a simple mixing glass for shaken or stirred cocktails in casual settings.
  3. Display: clean silhouette fits behind bars, on shelves, or on retail racks.

Quick tip: because the base is heavier, these glasses feel stable on trays and counters — handy when serving multiple drinks at once.

These glasses are dishwasher-safe; place them on the top rack and use a regular household cycle. For best longevity, avoid stacking them tightly and steer clear of high-heat commercial wash cycles when possible.

Hand wash with warm water and mild dish soap when you want to preserve maximum clarity and avoid sudden temperature shocks. Handle by the body, not just the rim, to reduce the chance of accidental chipping.
