NC 272 1945 (North Carolina) (Road Sign) Shot Glass 1.5oz

This design is a North Carolina route marker in flat vector, a square turned onto its point with a double border and the NC monogram above the number 272.

Visual Elements & Composition

Black and white make up the whole image, with white as the open ground and black defining the border and the letters. The rotated square forms a diamond, and a second line inside the outer edge gives the frame a layered, formal look. The NC monogram occupies the upper section, and the route number 272 is set below it as the dominant mark. The layout is symmetrical and unadorned, so the sign has the crisp, functional character of real roadside signage.

Meaning & Symbolism

A route marker is designed to be read quickly by a passing driver, and this one carries that purpose cleanly. The NC identifies the state and the 272 identifies the road, so the sign points to a specific route in North Carolina. The 1945 in the design name places the marker in the mid-twentieth century, a time when the numbered highway system was taking shape across the United States. It stands as a formal, documentary record of that network and its signs.

Held Close

A shot glass is small and held close, so the marker is seen at arm's length and turned slightly each time the glass is lifted. The diamond and its inner border sit comfortably within the curve of the glass, and the black numerals remain sharp as it rotates. It is a fitting match for a small glass, offering a route number to glance at between sips.

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.
