WIS 126 (Wisconsin) Road Sign Shot Glass - Design

This shot glass commemorates the former WIS 126, a short-lived state highway in Buffalo County, Wisconsin, through its iconic road sign representations. The design evokes a journey through the evolution of Wisconsin's highway markers, showcasing the historical significance of the route.

1919–1926: Circle Shield (Early Era)

The initial design pays homage to the earliest WIS 126 road signs. A bold black circle, prominently displaying the number "126," is centered within a white square. This design reflects the nascent stage of highway development, a simple yet easily recognizable marker for travelers on the "STATE ROAD." The circular form stands out, suggesting clarity and directness in navigation.

1926–1940s: Square Shield (Mid-Century)

This design showcases a transition in design. "WISCONSIN" appears elegantly across the top of the white square, framing the large, bold black "126" in the center. This design signifies the growth and formalization of the state's highway system. The square shape embodies order and the standardization of road signage.

1948–Decommissioning: Modern Shield (Later Era)

The final element represents the modern era of the highway. A crisp white square with a thin black border houses the smaller "WISCONSIN" text above a bold, centered black "126." This design reflects the streamlining of road signage and the legacy of WIS 126. The clear, uncluttered design conveys directness and professionalism.

Visual Story

The three designs collectively tell a visual story, from the early, basic markers to the streamlined modern shield. The different shield representations symbolize the evolution of road design during the lifespan of WIS 126, while the inclusion of the number "126" ensures a specific, enduring identity. These three designs together offer a poignant commemoration of a now-defunct highway in Wisconsin.

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.
