Virginia 100 (1956) Shot Glass - Design Overview

This shot glass captures the iconic design of the 1956 Virginia Route 100 road sign. The design pays homage to a pivotal era of American highway travel, reflecting the state's transition into a more standardized and easily recognizable system of road signage.

Artwork Details

The primary visual element is the crisp white silhouette of the Commonwealth of Virginia. A thin, black border elegantly traces the state's distinctive outline, providing definition and contrast.

Across the top of the design, the word "VIRGINIA" is printed in bold, uppercase black letters. This placement emphasizes the state's name and reinforces the geographical context of the route.

Centered within the state's shape, the route number "100" stands out in large, bold, black numerals. This bold numeral clearly identifies the specific road being represented.

Meaning and Symbolism

The design, directly inspired by the mid-century road sign, symbolizes the evolution of Virginia's infrastructure and its embrace of standardized road systems. The Virginia outline is a strong visual representation of the state itself, immediately conveying place and belonging. The bold numbering of "100" signifies a specific route, helping to orient travelers and providing a sense of direction and purpose during their journey.

The 1956 road sign design on this shot glass celebrates a specific moment in time when Virginia's road system was refined, becoming more organized and recognizable.

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.
