I-90 WA Metric (Washington) Road Sign Shot Glass - Design Description

This shot glass features a design inspired by the I-90 WA Metric road signs used in Washington State during the U.S. metric experiment of the 1970s and 1980s. The artwork pays homage to a pivotal moment in American road signage history.

Central Element: The Interstate Shield

The primary visual is the iconic Interstate shield, a symbol instantly recognizable to drivers across America. The classic color scheme is faithfully replicated: a bold red banner at the top bearing the word "INTERSTATE" in crisp white lettering, a vibrant blue field, and the large white numeral "90" denoting the specific highway.

Metric Context and Significance

The design evokes the era of metric signage by referencing the use of kilometers for distance markers. The Interstate shield itself represents connectivity and the vast network of roads that unite the country. The design embodies a specific, unique period of experimentation in U.S. road signage and its historical importance.

Design's Purpose and Message

The design celebrates the I-90 corridor and the brief shift towards metrication in the U.S. It captures the essence of a bygone era in road travel, recalling a time when the familiar symbols of the open road were adapted to new, international standards.

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.
