US 90 Florida 1948 (Road Sign) Shot Glass Design

This shot glass features a classic piece of Americana, a faithful recreation of the 1948 U.S. 90 Florida road sign. The design pays homage to a bygone era of highway travel and the functional simplicity of early road signage.

Iconic Imagery

At the heart of the design is the recognizable U.S. Highway shield. This is the instantly identifiable symbol of the U.S. Highway system, a network of roads that linked the nation. The stark white shield stands boldly against a stark black background, a color palette that was common in the late 1940s. The bold "90" is centrally placed, providing a clear and immediate identifier for the route.

Historical Significance

The "US" designation above the number completes the iconic look, establishing this as a specific U.S. Route. This particular sign reflects the highway’s path through Florida. The monochrome aesthetic and simple typography are characteristic of the practical, unadorned designs of the time, reflecting a design ethos focused on clarity and utility.

Meaning and Symbolism

This design celebrates a sense of history, and the romance of the open road. The U.S. Highway shield has a powerful visual connection to adventure, exploration, and the ever-present allure of travel. This shot glass design is a miniature reminder of the journeys undertaken and the routes traversed in the Sunshine State.

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.
