I-895 PA 1957 (Pennsylvania) Pint Glass - Design

This pint glass showcases a striking design inspired by a piece of American highway history: a proposed Interstate 895 road sign as envisioned in Pennsylvania around 1957. The artwork is a faithful representation of a design that never fully materialized on roadways, lending a unique collector's appeal.

Visual Elements

The design faithfully recreates the iconic Interstate shield, a symbol of the U.S. Interstate Highway System. The shield shape is instantly recognizable, with its prominent red, white, and blue color scheme, evoking a sense of American infrastructure and travel.

The artwork incorporates a key element of early Pennsylvania Interstate signage: the bold inclusion of the state name, “PENNSYLVANIA”, above the route number. This text reinforces the sign’s association with Pennsylvania and its role in highway construction during that era.

The route number “895” is rendered in the standard Interstate numeral font of the 1950s, ensuring historical accuracy and visual consistency.

Meaning and Symbolism

The design represents a historical "what if" scenario in the development of the American Interstate system. It symbolizes the plans and proposals of that era. As such, the artwork encapsulates a unique piece of history, the ambition of infrastructure projects, and the evolution of transportation in the United States.

Clear 16 oz (≈0.47 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 — durable, dishwasher-safe, and ideal for both serving and mixing.

These pints are crafted from 100% clear glass that showcases the drink inside — 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 / ≈0.47 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 — 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.
