This pint glass celebrates the enduring legacy of Nebraska's state highways, specifically the N-42 route as it appeared in 1950. The design focuses on the visual language of the road sign, offering a glimpse into a time when highway travel was rapidly evolving.

Signage Replica

The central element of the design is a faithful reproduction of the N-42 road sign from the 1950 era. It showcases the characteristic shield shape and color scheme that would have guided motorists across Nebraska. The "N" signifies a Nebraska state highway, while the bold "42" designates the specific route.

Color and Typography

The design utilizes the expected color palette of the 1950s Nebraska highway signage. The classic combination of white or yellow against a black background provides maximum visibility, crucial for clear communication at a glance. The typography echoes the standardized fonts of the period, emphasizing legibility and reflecting a period of modernization in highway design.

Symbolism and Meaning

The N-42 road sign represents a crucial link within the Nebraska highway system. More broadly, it symbolizes the spirit of exploration and discovery through the open road. It pays homage to the era of post-war expansion and the modernization of transportation infrastructure, making it a design rich in history and reflecting the growth of the nation.

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.
