US 177 Kansas 1926 (Road Sign) Shot Glass Design

This shot glass features a faithful representation of the original U.S. Route 177 highway sign as it appeared in Kansas in 1926. This design pays homage to the very beginnings of the U.S. Numbered Highway System, a pivotal moment in American transportation history.

Artwork and Visual Elements

The artwork centers around the iconic early U.S. highway shield. Its classic rounded-top shape, a hallmark of the first standardized designs, speaks to a simpler, more utilitarian approach to road signage. The bold, centered number "177" dominates the design, conveying immediate route identification.

Design Meaning and Symbolism

The color scheme, a contrasting pairing of black numbers against a white background (or vice versa), captures the minimalistic aesthetic of the era. The sign's design symbolizes connectivity, marking a pathway for regional and interstate travel across the Kansas landscape. It represents the crucial role US 177 played in linking communities and facilitating the movement of people and goods.

This design serves as a nostalgic reminder of a bygone era in American road travel, celebrating the origins of a system that continues to shape the nation's infrastructure.

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.
