OH-242 1967 (Ohio) Shot Glass - Design

This shot glass encapsulates the minimalist, functional aesthetic of Ohio's 1967 highway signage. The design directly replicates the classic route marker for Ohio State Route 242 from that era, offering a direct visual link to the state's transportation history.

Form and Color

The design features a starkly simple white square shield with a thin, black border, capturing the standardized format adopted by the Ohio Department of Highways in the mid-1950s. The proportions are subtly taller than wide, mirroring the original sign's characteristic dimensions.

Numerals and Symbolism

Bold, black numerals "242" dominate the center of the design, mirroring the typeface and placement of the original sign. The use of Highway Gothic font, optimized for nighttime visibility, highlights the sign's primary function: to clearly communicate vital information. The absence of the state name further simplifies the design, focusing solely on the route designation.

Historical Context

This design serves as a tribute to an era of clean, consistent highway design in Ohio. The use of a simple, straightforward design language is a hallmark of the period, reflecting a focus on efficiency and legibility. This shot glass provides a tangible connection to Ohio's road-building past, offering a piece of functional art rooted in utilitarian design.

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.
