Virginia 155 1956 (Virginia) (Road Sign) Shot Glass Design

This shot glass captures the essence of a bygone era in Virginia's highway history, showcasing the iconic road sign design from 1956. The artwork is a faithful reproduction of the state's distinctive signage, a symbol of Virginian identity and a nod to a time when roadside markers were as unique as the landscapes they guided travelers through.

Visual Elements

The design faithfully replicates the original sign's key characteristics. The primary visual is the silhouette of the Commonwealth of Virginia itself, a cut-out shape instantly recognizable to anyone familiar with the state. The color scheme is a classic and clear contrast: a stark white background representing the field of the sign, coupled with bold black elements. Centered within the Virginia outline is the black numeral "155," indicating the route number, presented in a bold typeface for clear visibility. Above or to the side is the name "VIRGINIA", also in bold black, identifying the state that the road belongs to.

Meaning and Symbolism

The design is deeply symbolic. The state outline itself represents Virginia, and its rich history and heritage. The black on white color scheme is simple yet powerful, providing high contrast and optimal legibility. The number "155" signifies a specific road within Virginia’s highway network, and the entire design signifies a time when state highway signs were individual works of art, imbued with a local character. This design serves as a nostalgic reminder of simpler times and the enduring spirit of the Old Dominion.

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.
