I-695 PA 1957 Pint Glass Design

A Nostalgic Tribute to the Interstate Era

This pint glass design pays homage to the early days of America's Interstate Highway System, specifically the proposed or preliminary designation of I-695 in Pennsylvania during the pivotal year of 1957. The artwork is a direct visual reference to the road signs that would have guided drivers along these new thoroughfares as they were being planned and initially constructed.

Iconic Interstate Shield

At the heart of the design is the iconic Interstate shield. The visual language speaks volumes, employing the classic palette of the era. A bold red banner arches across the top, proclaiming "INTERSTATE". Beneath, a vibrant blue backdrop cradles the route number, "695," rendered in stark white numerals. This color combination is instantly recognizable and a symbol of nationwide connectivity and progress.

Historical Significance

The design captures the unique aesthetic of early Interstate signage. It signifies the genesis of a national network that revolutionized travel and commerce. The slight variations in font and shield shape hint at the era before standardized uniformity. Every detail evokes a time of innovation and ambition, when the country was rapidly being interconnected by the open road.

Directional Cues (Potential)

The design's inclusion of potential "NORTH/SOUTH" (or other directional) banners, if present, amplifies the sign's original purpose: to guide travelers on their journey. It adds to the functionality of the original sign, ensuring direction, and represents the early days of Interstate planning and implementation.

This design is not just a collection of colors and shapes; it's a visual narrative, preserving a chapter of American history and the birth of a transportation system that has shaped the nation.

Clear 16 oz (β‰ˆ0.47 L) pint glasses made from solid glass with a heavy base for steady placement. Narrower at the bottom for an easier grip and balanced feel β€” durable, dishwasher-safe, and ideal for both serving and mixing.

These pints are crafted from 100% clear glass that showcases the drink inside β€” color, clarity and carbonation are all visible. A heavier, solid base reduces tipping and gives the glass a satisfying weight in the hand while the gently tapered body makes holding and carrying more comfortable.

Built to last, the construction resists chipping under normal use and is suitable for busy service environments as well as retail display. One-sided print work reads bright against the clear surface; the overall aesthetic is clean and modern.

  • Material: 100% clear glass for pure clarity and gloss.
  • Capacity: 16 oz (standard U.S. pint / β‰ˆ0.47 L).
  • Base: heavy solid glass base reduces tipping and improves balance.
  • Shape: narrower bottom for a comfortable grip and easier carrying.
  • Durability: dishwasher-safe and built for regular use.

Use these glasses for draft pours, mixed drinks, iced beverages and more. Their clear walls show off color and bubbles, which makes them a great choice for menus, tasting flights, and bars where presentation matters.

  1. Serving: ideal for beers, sodas, iced teas and cocktails served cold.
  2. Mixing: also works as a simple mixing glass for shaken or stirred cocktails in casual settings.
  3. Display: clean silhouette fits behind bars, on shelves, or on retail racks.

Quick tip: because the base is heavier, these glasses feel stable on trays and counters β€” handy when serving multiple drinks at once.

These glasses are dishwasher-safe; place them on the top rack and use a regular household cycle. For best longevity, avoid stacking them tightly and steer clear of high-heat commercial wash cycles when possible.

Hand wash with warm water and mild dish soap when you want to preserve maximum clarity and avoid sudden temperature shocks. Handle by the body, not just the rim, to reduce the chance of accidental chipping.
