Virginia 119 1956 (Virginia) (Road Sign) Shot Glass Design

This shot glass features a classic piece of Virginia history: the 1956 design of the Virginia Route 119 road sign. The artwork is a faithful representation of the signage that once guided travelers along the roadways of Virginia.

Visual Elements

The design adheres to the standard established in the mid-1950s by the Virginia Department of Highways. At the heart of the design is the route number "119," rendered in bold, black numerals. This is prominently displayed, ensuring easy identification of the designated route. The word "VIRGINIA" is incorporated in either above or integrated into the shield. The overall shape is a distinctive shield, or cut-out design, which serves as a visual marker.

Symbolism and Meaning

This artwork serves as a visual nod to a bygone era of Virginia's transportation history. The sign is not just an indicator of direction; it represents a period of state-wide standardization in road signage. The boldness of the design, with its clear numerals and state name, highlights the importance of the route during that time. It's a symbol of how Virginians navigated their state roads in the mid-1950s and a nostalgic reminder of the past.

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.
