WIS 135 1949 (Wisconsin) Shot Glass Design

This shot glass features a classic piece of Wisconsin history: the sign for WIS 135, as it would have appeared around 1949. The design is a direct representation of the standard state highway marker used throughout Wisconsin during the mid-20th century, a symbol of the state's transportation network and the open road.

The Iconic Shield

At the heart of the design is the distinct Wisconsin route marker. This shield is instantly recognizable, built upon a geometric foundation of an inverted triangle merged with a rounded rectangle. This unique form, evolving from a simple inverted triangle, was designed for optimal display of the highway number, ensuring clear visibility for drivers.

Numerical Representation

Prominently displayed within the shield is the number "135." This number is the key identifier for Wisconsin State Trunk Highway 135, representing a specific route that existed within the state's highway system during that era. The number's placement and the sign's overall design work together to create an easily understandable symbol of navigation and place.

A Symbol of a Bygone Era

The WIS 135 sign on this shot glass serves as a nostalgic reminder of the past, capturing the essence of mid-century Wisconsin and its roadways. It embodies the era's focus on clear signage, practical design, and a connection to the open road. The design is a celebration of a distinctive piece of Wisconsin history, perfect for those who appreciate the state's heritage and the spirit of exploration.

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.
