US 340 Kansas 1926 (Kansas) Road Sign Shot Glass Design

This shot glass design is a whimsical tribute to a piece of American history that never was. It celebrates the hypothetical existence of U.S. Route 340 in Kansas, a road that never actually graced the Sunflower State.

A Classic Representation

The artwork faithfully recreates the imagined appearance of a 1926 U.S. Highway sign. The design prominently features a white shield shape, the iconic outline of the original U.S. Highway shields, often referred to as a "police badge" or shield shape, with a flat top and rounded crown. It's a visual echo of an era when highway signage was a nascent art form.

Color and Text

The design utilizes a classic high-contrast color scheme: a white background providing a clear canvas for bold, black lettering. At the top of the shield, small black block letters spell out "US," the designation of the U.S. Highway System, a pivotal moment in American transportation history. Centered below, the number "340" stands out in large, clear block numbers. This is a symbolic representation, with the number representing the fictional route.

Border and Period Accuracy

A solid black border meticulously outlines the shield's shape, adding definition and visual impact. The design intentionally lacks any reflective elements, staying true to the era's signage practices where reflectivity wasn't yet a standard feature. The artwork strives to evoke a sense of nostalgia for a past that never quite happened, a unique blend of history and imagination.

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.
