I-470 OH 1961 (Ohio) (Road Sign) Shot Glass Design

This shot glass design pays tribute to a hypothetical moment in Ohio's interstate highway history. It reimagines what an I-470 road sign might have looked like in 1961, a time when the Interstate Highway System was still in its early stages of development. The design encapsulates the optimistic spirit of early highway construction.

Visual Elements & Symbolism

The central element is a faithful representation of a 1961-style Interstate shield. The design adheres to the classic format: a red top banner proclaiming "INTERSTATE" in bold white lettering. Below, a vibrant blue field provides the backdrop for the prominently displayed white numerals "470." This color palette – red, white, and blue – is instantly recognizable as signifying American roadways. The white numerals denote the specific highway designation, and in this case, a bypass for a critical passage into Ohio.

The shield is bordered by a clean white line, further defining the iconic shape. While hypothetical in this case, the design embodies the era's focus on clear, easily recognizable signage to guide travelers. While not present on all signs of the era, the design could potentially include "OHIO" at the bottom to designate the state or NORTH, SOUTH, EAST, or WEST directional banners, providing even more context to the highway’s intended route.

The overall design captures the spirit of exploration and connection represented by the Interstate Highway System. It's a nostalgic nod to an era of progress and the promise of efficient travel.

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.
