N-85 1950 (Nebraska) Shot Glass Design

This shot glass features a design that pays homage to the Nebraska highway system of the 1950s. The artwork centers around the iconic road sign designation for N-85, a state highway that once served as a vital artery for regional travel across Nebraska.

Visual Elements

The design faithfully replicates the standardized road sign design of the era. The primary element is a representation of a road sign shape, likely rectangular or shield-like. The background is a clean white, echoing the original enamel used in the 1950s signage.

Text and Symbolism

Bold black text provides the essential details. The prominent letter "N" signifies a Nebraska state highway, instantly identifying the route's origin. Beneath, the number "85" clearly marks the specific highway designation. This minimalist approach reflects the period's emphasis on clarity and legibility, ensuring the route's information could be quickly and easily understood from a distance.

The design, as a whole, embodies the spirit of mid-century Americana and the evolution of transportation infrastructure. It represents a piece of Nebraska's historical landscape, reflecting the crucial role of highways in connecting communities and fostering regional development.

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.
