I-35 IA 1957 (Iowa) Shot Glass Design

This shot glass features a miniature recreation of the original 1957 I-35 Iowa Interstate road sign. The design pays homage to the early days of the Interstate Highway System, capturing the classic aesthetic of mid-century American road travel.

Shield of the Interstate

The core of the design is the shield shape, a universally recognized symbol for Interstate routes. This shape immediately identifies the subject matter: a critical piece of infrastructure, the interstate highway network that connected the nation.

Color and Composition

The colors are a defining feature. The top band of the shield is rendered in a vibrant red, the middle in a deep blue, and the route number "35" displayed in crisp white numerals. This classic color scheme, while simple, creates a visual impact intended for quick identification, even at a distance.

Textual Details

The design includes the word "INTERSTATE" at the top and the state abbreviation "IOWA". These textual elements, along with the bold "35," are crucial for providing context and identifying the specific route and state represented by the sign. The layout is clean and uncluttered, adhering to the principles of effective wayfinding and visual communication.

In essence, this shot glass design is a miniature artifact, a visual echo of a bygone era of American highway design, encapsulating the spirit of the open road and interstate travel.

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.
