I-170 MD (Maryland) Road Sign Shot Glass Design

This shot glass features a vibrant and iconic representation of the former Interstate 170 in Maryland. The design is a faithful recreation of the original Interstate highway sign, a visual symbol of America's vast network of roadways.

Design Elements

The artwork prominently displays the standard Interstate shield. A bold blue field forms the backdrop, representing the open sky above the highway. A red banner arches across the top, bearing the word "INTERSTATE" in crisp white lettering. Centered within the blue field is the white numeral "170," identifying the specific highway designation.

Above the number, the word "MARYLAND" is elegantly displayed in white, confirming the state to which this road was once assigned. The contrast between the bright white lettering and the rich blue field ensures high visibility and recognition, reflecting the sign's purpose of clear communication.

Meaning and Symbolism

The design serves as a nostalgic tribute to a bygone era of highway planning and construction. It represents a piece of Maryland's transportation history, a planned route that was never fully realized. The shield design itself is a powerful symbol of connectivity, mobility, and the American road trip. It recalls the promise of easy travel, linking communities, and facilitating commerce.

The artwork allows one to visually reflect upon the past, recalling the project that was intended, yet never completely constructed.

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.
