Texas 52 1917 (Texas) (Road Sign) Shot Glass 1.5oz

A mid-century style state highway shield in black and white, with the route number 52 at its centre and the words STATE and HIGHWAY set around it.

Visual Elements & Composition

The palette is pure black and white, with white taking the larger share of the field. A square frame holds the layout, and a circular badge with a five-pointed star sits within it, a combination that gives the piece a heraldic, badge-like balance. The numeral 52 is the dominant element and the eye settles there first, with the smaller lettering of STATE and HIGHWAY reading as the supporting line. The flat vector treatment keeps every edge sharp and every shape easy to pick out.

Meaning & Symbolism

The Texas Highway Department was established in 1917, the year that opens this design's title, and the state's early numbered routes followed soon after. State Highway 52 was designated on 21 August 1923. It ran from Hedley through Wellington to the Oklahoma border across the Texas Panhandle, and it was later renumbered as State Highway 203 by 26 September 1945. The shield therefore records one of the first generation of numbered routes, a small piece of the state's transport history.

Life on a Shot Glass

A shot glass is small and is held close, lifted and turned near the eye, so the shield is read at arm's length rather than from across a room. The bold numeral and the simple badge hold their shape at that scale, and the pared-back black and white suits a home bar or a shelf of Texas keepsakes. It is a compact way to carry a piece of the Panhandle's road history.

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.
