I-99 PA Metric (Pennsylvania) Shot Glass: Design Description

Visual Representation

This shot glass showcases a vibrant representation of the I-99 PA Metric road sign, a nod to a unique historical moment in Pennsylvania's transportation history. The design is a faithful recreation of the standard Interstate shield, with a distinct emphasis on the era of metric experimentation.

Shield Design: The Heart of the Matter

At the center of the design is the iconic Interstate shield. It's a bold display of the familiar red, white, and blue color scheme, instantly recognizable to anyone familiar with American roadways. The shield's top banner, emblazoned with "INTERSTATE" in white lettering against the red background, speaks to the federal nature of the highway. Within the blue field, the large white numerals "99" denote the specific route, in this case, Interstate 99.

This design element is presented without any modifications to the core interstate highway shield, accurately representing the reality of the metric signage experience.

Metric Context & Significance

The design, while focused on the shield itself, evokes the context of the U.S. metrication experiment. It represents a period where the fundamental road signs, such as the Interstate shield, remained unchanged, but the surrounding information - distances and speeds - was presented in metric units (kilometers). This design acts as a reminder of a moment in history where American infrastructure briefly flirted with the metric system.

The design of this shot glass is a tribute to the memory of metric signage within the United States.

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.
