MUTCD-CA PS-096 (California) (Road Sign) Shot Glass 1.5oz

This design reproduces a California roadside prohibition sign: a stick figure swinging a bat, crossed out by a bold red circle with a diagonal slash, told at a glance in the language of traffic control.

Visual Elements & Composition

Crimson red, black and white do all the work. The white field fills most of the sign, with the black pictogram centred and the red ring and slash sitting over it like a stamp. The figure is drawn in simple flat strokes, with no shading or texture, so the prohibition reads before the detail does. The square outline of the sign frames the whole composition, and there is no text to translate. The shapes are deliberately plain, which is why the sign stays legible at a distance and at small scale.

Meaning & Symbolism

The red circle and diagonal slash form the international language of prohibition, and the figure shows the activity being stopped. This is a PS-series sign from the California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices, a standard system that fixes a single meaning for each symbol so that drivers and pedestrians across the state read it the same way. The sign marks places where informal ball games would clash with foot traffic, vehicles or safety zones, such as roadsides beside parks, scenic overlooks and rest areas. The design is a piece of public order, drawn to keep shared space safe.

Holding the Sign in Your Hand

A shot glass is small and held close, so the sign is seen from above and at arm's length, in one quick glance. The red slash sits at the centre of the glass where the eye lands first, and the white field becomes the bright surface a drink is poured against. Turned in the hand, the figure and its ring keep their crisp outline, which suits a design built for a fast read.

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.
