Edward T Breathitt Pennyrile Parkway Shield (Kentucky) (Road Sign) Shot Glass 1.5oz

This design reproduces the road shield of the Edward T. Breathitt Pennyrile Parkway, a western Kentucky highway whose signage was once a familiar sight on the state's roads.

Visual Elements & Composition

The shield is built as a flat, graphic panel with a rounded square field of bold colour. Across that field sits a large white silhouette of the state of Kentucky, which takes up most of the composition and anchors it. Inside the outline, the word PENNYRILE is set in heavy white block capitals and centred, so the name reads instantly. The layout is simple and symmetrical, with no ornament beyond the shape of the state and the lettering.

Meaning & Symbolism

The parkway takes its name from Edward T. Breathitt, Kentucky's 51st governor, and the highway ran north from Hopkinsville to Henderson. The state outline marks the route as a Kentucky road, while the single word PENNYRILE identifies this particular highway and sets it apart from other regional parkways that used the same template, such as the Purchase Parkway. Most of the route was re-signed as part of I-69 and I-169 during the 2010s, so the shield now preserves a piece of the state's mid-to-late twentieth-century road network.

Why It Suits a Shot Glass

A shot glass is small and lifted close to the face, so the shield sits right in your line of sight as you raise it. The state outline and the bold lettering read at a glance, which suits a design that was made to be recognised quickly from a moving car. Pour a round for the people who know that stretch of road, or for anyone who has driven it and remembers the green-and-white signs.

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.
