Virginia 17 1918 (Virginia) Road Sign Shot Glass Design

This shot glass features a design that pays homage to the earliest days of Virginia's state highway system. The artwork meticulously recreates the look of a Virginia Route 17 road sign as it would have appeared in 1918, when the Commonwealth first began numbering its primary roadways.

Design Elements

The central element of the design is the bold "17," rendered in a stark black, the primary indicator of the route number. Positioned above this is the word "Virginia" written in a small, accompanying black font.

The background of the design is a plain, solid white, reflecting the simple, utilitarian nature of the original signs. The entire composition is encased within a plain rectangle, mirroring the flat, unadorned metal plates that marked the early highway network. There are no borders, outlines, or flourishes, emphasizing the straightforward functionality of the era's signage.

Symbolism and Meaning

The design represents a significant moment in Virginia's transportation history, the birth of a state-managed highway system. It symbolizes the beginnings of modern road travel and the systematic organization of the state's roadways. The simplicity of the sign itself reflects the era's focus on practicality and function over aesthetic elaboration. It is a visual representation of the early efforts to connect communities and facilitate movement across the 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.
