N-11C 1926 (Nebraska) Shot Glass Design

This shot glass features a design inspired by the historic N-11C Nebraska road sign from 1926, a relic of the state's early highway system. The artwork directly references the visual language used to designate Nebraska's state highways before the standardization of U.S. Highways and modern numbering systems.

Sign Elements

The design faithfully recreates the key elements of the original road sign. A bold, black letter "N" dominates the top of the design, signaling its identification as a Nebraska state highway. Beneath the "N," the route designation "11C" is prominently displayed, also in black, block letters. This indicates that this was a branch or alternate route connected to the main N-11 highway.

Color and Symbolism

The color scheme is stark and functional, mirroring the straightforward design principles of the era. The background is a clean white, evoking a sense of simplicity and clarity. The use of black for the lettering creates a high-contrast visual effect, ensuring the route designation is easily readable from a distance. The design’s minimalism reflects the primary function of these signs: to efficiently guide travelers across the state.

Historical Context

The N-11C road sign represents a pivotal period in Nebraska's transportation history. It speaks to the state's efforts to organize and improve its road network, allowing for greater connectivity and easier travel across its vast landscape. The design on this shot glass serves as a small tribute to this bygone era of road travel and the ingenuity of early highway design.

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.
