Nebraska State Spur 492 (Nebraska) Road Sign Coffee Mug - Design

This coffee mug showcases a faithful representation of the Nebraska State Spur 492 road sign, as it would have appeared in the 1950s and 1960s. The design is a nostalgic tribute to the era of postwar highway development and the importance of connecting communities across the state.

Visual Elements

The design prominently features the words "Spur" and "492," rendered in classic black lettering against a crisp white background. The word "Spur" is positioned above the route number, clearly indicating the specific designation of this short branching route within the Nebraska highway system. The font style mirrors the standardized typography of the period, emphasizing legibility and reflecting the uniformity found across Nebraska's road signage of the time.

Meaning and Symbolism

The sign represents a direct link to smaller communities and points of interest. It symbolizes accessibility, connection, and the spirit of exploration inherent in postwar road travel. The inclusion of "Spur" emphasizes the role of these routes in providing vital access, branching off from main highways to facilitate direct journeys to destinations off the beaten path.

The overall design is a straightforward and instantly recognizable icon of a specific moment in Nebraska's history. It is a bold statement, evoking the practicality, and optimism of highway planning and a simpler era of driving.

Sturdy white ceramic mugs available in 11 oz (≈330 ml) and 15 oz (≈440 ml), with a glossy finish and comfortable C-handle — microwave and dishwasher safe, and made from lead- and BPA-free materials.

These mugs are built from durable white ceramic so colors pop cleanly and prints read with strong contrast. A smooth, glossy glaze gives each mug a lively sheen and makes it easy to wipe clean after daily use.

Both sizes feature a classic C-shaped handle that feels natural in the hand; whether you sip slowly or gulp quickly, the grip is steady. Safety-wise, the ceramic is processed to be lead- and BPA-free — suitable for everyday drinking.

  • Material: white ceramic with a glossy glaze for bright, clear prints.
  • Sizes: 11 oz (≈330 ml) and 15 oz (≈440 ml) to suit small and generous pours.
  • Handle: comfortable C-handle for balanced holding and easy lifting.
  • Safety: lead-free and BPA-free for peace of mind with every cup.
  • Finish: glossy surface that highlights saturated inks and smooth detail.

Perfect for morning coffee, afternoon tea, or a rich hot chocolate — these mugs fit comfortably in most cabinets and cupholders. They’re also a reliable choice for office kitchens where items see frequent use.

  1. Everyday use: safe for hot liquids and daily serving; the wider 15 oz option works great for larger morning routines or extra-steamy drinks.
  2. Office-friendly: the classic profile stacks easily with similar mugs and sits securely on standard saucers and trays.
  3. Gift idea: a practical, well-finished mug is useful and simple to display or wrap for gifting.

Quick note: while the mugs are dishwasher-safe, treating them gently helps keep the print looking fresh longer (see Care tab).

These mugs are rated for microwave and dishwasher use, but small habits extend their life. Run them on the top rack of the dishwasher and avoid high-temperature commercial cycles whenever possible.

For longest-lasting print clarity: hand wash with mild dish soap and a soft cloth, avoid abrasive scouring pads, and don’t let them soak in strong detergents. When microwaving, use short intervals and avoid empty heating.

Available sizes: 11 oz (approximately 330 ml) and 15 oz (approximately 440 ml). The 11 oz is a classic coffee size; the 15 oz gives extra room for cream, froth, or larger servings.

Each mug has a standard-width mouth for easy sipping and cleaning; height and diameter vary slightly between sizes to maintain comfortable proportions and sturdy balance.
