Texas 139 1917 (Texas) (Road Sign) Pint Glass 16oz

A Glimpse of Texas History

This pint glass celebrates the early days of Texas highways, specifically the planned but ultimately short-lived State Highway 139 from 1917. The design captures the simplicity and historical significance of the original route markers used by the Texas Highway Department.

The Design: A Time Capsule

The artwork replicates the rudimentary road signs of 1917. The centerpiece is the number "139," rendered in stark black against a plain white square. This stark simplicity reflects the practical nature of these early route markers, often painted onto available surfaces like telephone poles. The absence of a stylized Texas shape or any frills is a deliberate nod to the period, showcasing the nascent state of highway infrastructure.

Symbolism of the Early Texas Roads

The design speaks of a bygone era, of a state in the process of defining its transportation network. The basic square-and-number design is symbolic of the first steps in Texas's ambitious endeavor to connect its communities through a state-wide highway system. It represents the raw ambition and practical approach of the state as it started to create its own routes, long before modern highway design.

Clear 16 oz (β‰ˆ0.47 L) pint glasses made from solid glass with a heavy base for steady placement. Narrower at the bottom for an easier grip and balanced feel β€” durable, dishwasher-safe, and ideal for both serving and mixing.

These pints are crafted from 100% clear glass that showcases the drink inside β€” color, clarity and carbonation are all visible. A heavier, solid base reduces tipping and gives the glass a satisfying weight in the hand while the gently tapered body makes holding and carrying more comfortable.

Built to last, the construction resists chipping under normal use and is suitable for busy service environments as well as retail display. One-sided print work reads bright against the clear surface; the overall aesthetic is clean and modern.

  • Material: 100% clear glass for pure clarity and gloss.
  • Capacity: 16 oz (standard U.S. pint / β‰ˆ0.47 L).
  • Base: heavy solid glass base reduces tipping and improves balance.
  • Shape: narrower bottom for a comfortable grip and easier carrying.
  • Durability: dishwasher-safe and built for regular use.

Use these glasses for draft pours, mixed drinks, iced beverages and more. Their clear walls show off color and bubbles, which makes them a great choice for menus, tasting flights, and bars where presentation matters.

  1. Serving: ideal for beers, sodas, iced teas and cocktails served cold.
  2. Mixing: also works as a simple mixing glass for shaken or stirred cocktails in casual settings.
  3. Display: clean silhouette fits behind bars, on shelves, or on retail racks.

Quick tip: because the base is heavier, these glasses feel stable on trays and counters β€” handy when serving multiple drinks at once.

These glasses are dishwasher-safe; place them on the top rack and use a regular household cycle. For best longevity, avoid stacking them tightly and steer clear of high-heat commercial wash cycles when possible.

Hand wash with warm water and mild dish soap when you want to preserve maximum clarity and avoid sudden temperature shocks. Handle by the body, not just the rim, to reduce the chance of accidental chipping.
