US 63 Iowa 1948 (Road Sign) Pint Glass Design

This pint glass celebrates a piece of American road history: the 1948 U.S. Route 63 highway marker as it would have appeared in Iowa. The artwork replicates the classic design of a U.S. highway shield from that era, a symbol of national connectivity and the vast network of roads that linked the country together.

Artwork Details

The design features a stark black "63" prominently displayed within a white, shield-shaped background. Above the number, the stylized letters "US" are depicted, clearly identifying the route as part of the U.S. Highway System. The shield shape, though consistent with the overall national standard, suggests a possible more square form, hinting at the regional variation common in that time. This captures the era’s unique signage styles.

The color palette is deliberately limited, reflecting the sign’s historical construction with basic, functional materials. The high-contrast black and white palette ensures clear visibility for drivers, even in low-light conditions, which was a critical consideration for road signage.

Symbolism

The design’s focus is on the essential information needed to navigate a historical journey, a bygone era in American transport. The black "63" represents the specific route, while the "US" prefix connects it to the larger national grid. By presenting this historical sign on a drinking vessel, the design offers a unique way to celebrate travel, history, and the evolution of American highways and the road culture associated with them.

Clear 16 oz (≈0.47 L) pint glasses made from solid glass with a heavy base for steady placement. Narrower at the bottom for an easier grip and balanced feel — durable, dishwasher-safe, and ideal for both serving and mixing.

These pints are crafted from 100% clear glass that showcases the drink inside — color, clarity and carbonation are all visible. A heavier, solid base reduces tipping and gives the glass a satisfying weight in the hand while the gently tapered body makes holding and carrying more comfortable.

Built to last, the construction resists chipping under normal use and is suitable for busy service environments as well as retail display. One-sided print work reads bright against the clear surface; the overall aesthetic is clean and modern.

  • Material: 100% clear glass for pure clarity and gloss.
  • Capacity: 16 oz (standard U.S. pint / ≈0.47 L).
  • Base: heavy solid glass base reduces tipping and improves balance.
  • Shape: narrower bottom for a comfortable grip and easier carrying.
  • Durability: dishwasher-safe and built for regular use.

Use these glasses for draft pours, mixed drinks, iced beverages and more. Their clear walls show off color and bubbles, which makes them a great choice for menus, tasting flights, and bars where presentation matters.

  1. Serving: ideal for beers, sodas, iced teas and cocktails served cold.
  2. Mixing: also works as a simple mixing glass for shaken or stirred cocktails in casual settings.
  3. Display: clean silhouette fits behind bars, on shelves, or on retail racks.

Quick tip: because the base is heavier, these glasses feel stable on trays and counters — handy when serving multiple drinks at once.

These glasses are dishwasher-safe; place them on the top rack and use a regular household cycle. For best longevity, avoid stacking them tightly and steer clear of high-heat commercial wash cycles when possible.

Hand wash with warm water and mild dish soap when you want to preserve maximum clarity and avoid sudden temperature shocks. Handle by the body, not just the rim, to reduce the chance of accidental chipping.
