US 17 Florida (1948) Shot Glass - Design Overview

This shot glass features a classic piece of Americana: the design of the U.S. 17 Florida road sign as it appeared in 1948. The artwork is a faithful recreation of the signage that once guided motorists along the eastern coast of Florida.

A Slice of History

At the heart of the design is the iconic U.S. Highway shield. This instantly recognizable shape, rendered in white against a stark black backdrop, speaks volumes. It's a symbol of the U.S. Highway system, a network that connected communities and fueled the post-war boom.

Symbolism of the Road

The prominent "17" within the shield is the focal point, denoting U.S. Route 17. The “US” above the number further clarifies this vital piece of infrastructure. This simple number held immense significance; it represented a journey, the open road, and the ability to traverse the state, linking Jacksonville, Palatka, and Punta Gorda for travelers.

Monochrome Elegance

The monochrome palette, characteristic of the era, adds to the design's authenticity. It’s a bold statement of clarity and function, a visual reminder of a time when the focus was solely on the journey itself. The design is a testament to the efficient, direct style of mid-century American road signage.

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.
