New Mexico 96 1926 (New Mexico) (Road Sign) Shot Glass 1.5oz

Red and black on golden yellow, this early state route marker pairs the number 96 with the four-pointed Zia sun, the emblem of the state's first uniform highway signs.

Visual Elements & Composition

Golden yellow makes up the larger share of the design, with red and black carrying the emblem and lettering. The badge is circular, with a sun disc at its heart and rays radiating outward in four directions. The words STATE and ROAD sit around the edge, and the route number 96 stands out below the sun. The layout is flat and direct, built for quick reading from a moving car.

Meaning & Symbolism

In 1926 New Mexico began placing uniform numbered route signs along its state roads, the first system of its kind in the state. The Zia sun, drawn from Zia Pueblo culture, stands for the four directions, the four seasons, the four stages of life and the four sacred obligations. It also appears on the state flag, so a sign built around it ties the road directly to New Mexico's identity.

Shaped for the Glass

A shot glass is small and held close, so the emblem and numerals are read at close range before the glass is lifted. The strong yellow and red show clearly against the clear glass, and the round badge fits the curved body of the vessel.

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.
