WV-48 1922 (Virginia) (Road Sign) Shot Glass Design

This shot glass design pays homage to a forgotten piece of early Virginia highway history. It centers around the visual identity of a Virginia Route 48 road sign as it may have appeared in 1922, offering a glimpse into a time before standardized highway markings.

Artwork & Visual Elements

The artwork replicates the simple yet distinct design of the early Virginia highway markers. The sign is rendered as a white circular or oval shield. Inside the shield, the prominent "VA 48" designation is clearly displayed in a bold, black typeface. The placement and style of the lettering echo the historical signage of the era.

Meaning & Symbolism

The design represents a journey back in time to the formative years of road infrastructure in Virginia. The "VA 48" is a symbol of a specific route, now obscured by the passage of time. The white and black color scheme reflects the design conventions of the early 1920s, before modern color-coding and complex graphics became commonplace in highway signage.

The design does not represent WV-48 since this number and route did not exist at the time.

Compact, heavy-based shot glasses made from clear, restaurant-grade glass. One standard size (1.5 oz / โ‰ˆ44.3 ml) โ€” 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.

Theyโ€™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 (โ‰ˆ44.3 ml) โ€” 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 โ€” 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 โ€” 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 (โ‰ˆ44.3 ml). Use the dimensions below for shelving, packaging, or tray planning.
