Virginia 120 1956 (Virginia) (Road Sign) Shot Glass 1.5oz

This shot glass features a meticulously rendered design of the historical Virginia 120 road sign, specifically the version used in 1956. The artwork is a faithful reproduction of the route marker that once guided motorists along State Route 120 in Virginia.

A Slice of Mid-Century Americana

The design represents a tangible piece of Virginia's transportation history. It's a visual homage to the mid-20th-century era when state highway signs had distinctive, often locally-inspired, aesthetics. The "1956" designation signifies a specific style of route marker, preserved in historical archives.

The Iconic Route Shield

The central element of the design is the route shield itself. This shield, likely featuring a unique design from the era, would have served as an instant identifier for drivers, indicating their location on or approaching State Route 120, a highway traversing Arlington County. The artwork captures the authentic look of these signs, preserving the visual language of the road.

Symbolism of the Open Road

Beyond its literal function, the sign's design evokes a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era of travel. It represents the freedom of the open road, the exploration of new places, and the enduring connection between a state's identity and its infrastructure.

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.
