PA-187 1926 Road Sign Coffee Mug - Design Description

This coffee mug features a design inspired by the classic Pennsylvania state route markers from approximately 1926. The artwork is a faithful representation of the vintage road sign style, instantly recognizable to enthusiasts of transportation history and vintage Americana.

The Keystone Symbol

At the heart of the design is the iconic keystone shape. This bold outline, a prominent symbol of the state's identity, pays homage to Pennsylvania's nickname, "The Keystone State." The keystone is more than just a shape; it's a direct reference to the state's central role in the formation of the United States. It's a design element that embodies the history and heritage of Pennsylvania.

Route Number & Typography

The route number, "187," is prominently displayed within the keystone, just as it would have appeared on a real Pennsylvania road sign of the era. The typography used is reminiscent of the classic fonts used in the early 20th century, adding to the authenticity of the design. The route number would have been painted in a bold, easily visible style, important for quickly identifying the road.

Color Palette and Overall Aesthetic

The design likely features a color palette of white, black, or blue, common to this type of road sign from that time. The color choice evokes the time period when these signs were common, giving a sense of timelessness and nostalgia. The overall aesthetic is clean and straightforward, mirroring the functional purpose of the original road sign – clear, concise communication.

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 β€” suitable for everyday drinking.

  • Sizes: 11 oz (β‰ˆ330 ml) and 15 oz (β‰ˆ440 ml) to suit small and generous pours.
  • Handle: comfortable C-handle for balanced holding and easy lifting.

Perfect for morning coffee, afternoon tea, or a rich hot chocolate β€” 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.
