OH-142 1927 (Ohio) Coffee Mug: A Journey Back in Time

This coffee mug transports you back to 1927, the dawn of Ohio's numbered highway system. The design is a faithful recreation of the original OH-142 road sign used during that era, a testament to a simpler time in road travel and signage.

Classic Road Sign Aesthetic

The artwork centers on the core essence of the 1927 sign: a stark, uncluttered design. The bold, black number "142" is prominently displayed against a clean, white background. This straightforward approach reflects the early standardization of state highway signage, prioritizing clarity and ease of recognition for travelers.

Symbolism of Route and Region

The mug acts as a symbolic connection to the historical route OH-142. The sign signifies more than just a road; it represents the connections between towns and the accessibility the route provided to the communities of southeastern Ohio. The mug becomes a piece of Ohio history, a reminder of the origins of the state's expansive road network and the early efforts to build a navigable and well-marked transportation system.

A Heritage in Every Sip

The mug is a visual tribute to the past, a symbol of Ohio's transportation legacy. Its simplistic design is elegant in its function. When you enjoy a beverage from this mug, you are also appreciating a moment in time when clear communication and a new era of road travel was beginning.

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.
