I-895 MD 1957 Shot Glass Design

This shot glass features a classic representation of the I-895 road sign as it would have appeared in Maryland during 1957, early in the Interstate Highway System's history. The design evokes a sense of vintage Americana and the dawn of modern travel.

Visual Elements

The centerpiece is a shield design, instantly recognizable as an Interstate highway marker. The familiar shape is rendered in the historical 1957 style: a blue background cradling the route number, and a bold red "INTERSTATE" banner arching across the top. The number "895" is prominently displayed in a stark white, using a blocky font characteristic of the era.

Symbolism and Meaning

The design represents a significant period in American infrastructure development. It symbolizes the growth and expansion of the nation through roadways. The use of the 1957 design specifically harkens back to the initial rollout of the Interstate system. It signifies a moment in time when travel was undergoing a massive transformation, connecting communities and paving the way for the future of transportation.

This design serves as a nostalgic reminder of a simpler time, when the Interstate signs were functional and the journey was the adventure. It offers a glimpse into the evolution of American road 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.
