NC 9 1945 (North Carolina) (Road Sign) Shot Glass 1.5oz

A white diamond route marker in flat black and white, bearing the NC monogram over a large numeral 9 and the year 1945.

Visual Elements & Composition

White covers most of the surface, with black used for the monogram, the numeral and the thin edge of the sign. The diamond shape is the frame, and the NC letters sit at the top with the 9 filling the lower half. The composition is plain and balanced, with no ornament, so the numeral has the strongest presence on the piece.

Meaning & Symbolism

A diamond marker with a route number is the standard form of the highway signs that began to mark American roads in the decades around the Second World War. Setting the NC monogram and the number 9 inside that form identifies North Carolina as the subject, and the year 1945 fixes the design in that wartime and immediate post-war period. It stands as a commemorative sign for the state and its roads.

Shaped for the Shot Glass

A shot glass sits in the palm and is seen up close, so a compact marker suits it well. The large 9 reads at a glance, and the NC above it stays legible through the clear glass. The white ground keeps the black figures crisp against whatever is poured in, and the diamond shape echoes the rounded edge of the glass.

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.
