Texas 3C 1917 (Texas) (Road Sign) Shot Glass 1.5oz

A flat, graphic road sign setting the designation Texas 3C and the year 1917 inside a state highway shield, with a five-pointed star at its centre.

Visual Elements & Composition

The palette is limited to black and white. A black five-pointed star sits within a circular ring, while a square frame and the shield outline hold the lettering in place. STATE and HIGHWAY run around the badge, and 3C with the numerals 1917 are set large and legible. The layout is symmetrical and restrained, with nothing beyond the badge itself to pull the eye away from the text.

Meaning & Symbolism

The 3C designation refers to the 3rd Battalion of the 24th U.S. Infantry Regiment, one of the Buffalo Soldier units, which was stationed in Houston, Texas, in 1917 to guard military camp construction during the First World War. The sign's plain wayfinding form, drawn in the mid-century style of its era, sets that service against the everyday language of the road. The unit's story is also tied to the Houston Riot of August 1917, and the court-martial that followed it remains one of the most significant events in the regiment's history.

On the Shot Glass

A shot glass is small and held close, so the badge sits at eye level as the glass is raised. The star and the numerals come straight into view with each pour, and the black-and-white contrast reads clearly through the clear glass.

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.
