The section north of I-65 was re-designated as Interstate 165, and the section south of I-65 became Kentucky Route 9007. The shield therefore records a specific chapter in the state's road history, a route that linked western Kentucky's two cities and is now remembered through its sign.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eOn the Coffee Mug\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA mug is turned in the hand, so the sign rotates into view as you lift it for a sip. The rounded panel sits well across the curve of the white ceramic, and the bold lettering stays clear from the handle side and across the table.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Go Mug Yourself","offers":[{"title":"11oz","offer_id":53114568671512,"sku":"28440845745272196332","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"15oz","offer_id":53114568704280,"sku":"91369984047852844018","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0703\/5204\/4312\/files\/46693777998104.webp?v=1793905465","url":"https:\/\/gomugyourself.com\/products\/william-h-natcher-pkwy-shield-kentucky-road-sign-white-coffee-mug","provider":"Go Mug Yourself","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
