Story County Route E18 IA (Iowa) Shot Glass Design

This shot glass design celebrates the unique road signage of Story County, Iowa. The artwork is centered on a faithful representation of the official County Road E18 sign, offering a touch of Iowa pride.

Signage Representation

The primary visual element is the distinctive blue pentagon, meticulously recreated to match Iowa's county road signage standards. Within the pentagon, the text "E18" is rendered in a vibrant yellow, ensuring high visibility and recognition, just like the real road sign.

Symbolism and Meaning

The design represents the essential infrastructure of Story County, a network of roads that connects communities and facilitates local travel. The pentagon shape, derived from the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD), signifies the standardized and regulated nature of these crucial routes. The color palette - blue and yellow - is directly linked to the Iowa road signage system.

Nostalgia and History

A subtle nod to the past is integrated into the design. It represents the transition from the older green square signs to the modern pentagon shape, referencing the evolution of Story County’s road markings. The use of the official E18 sign graphic links the shot glass to a particular place.

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.
