OH-585 1927 (Ohio) (Road Sign) Shot Glass - Design Description

This shot glass features a design inspired by the original Ohio State Route 585 road signs from 1927. The artwork is a faithful reproduction of the state's earliest standardized system, a visual snapshot of Ohio's early 20th-century road infrastructure.

Sign Elements

The design utilizes a classic, instantly recognizable format. The central element is the iconic silhouette of the state of Ohio, rendered in solid black. This silhouette serves as the primary identifier, immediately linking the sign to the state itself.

Within the Ohio outline, the route number, "585," is boldly displayed. These numerals are presented in a compressed, block style, reflecting the practical limitations of fitting the numbers within the state’s borders. The black numerals contrast sharply with the white background of the Ohio outline, ensuring clear visibility.

Color Palette and Symbolism

The design is restricted to a simple yet effective color palette. The stark contrast between the black outline, the black numerals, and the white background of the Ohio state outline ensures readability and visual impact. This design conveys a sense of straightforward functionality and clarity, typical of early road signage.

The overall design symbolizes the establishment of standardized highway systems and the growth of automotive travel in early 20th-century America. The Ohio state silhouette signifies a connection to place and represents the pride of the state. The route number signifies a specific path. The simplicity of the design reflects the efficiency and practicality of early highway systems.

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.
