WIS 142 (1958) Shot Glass Design

This shot glass features the classic design of the 1958 Wisconsin State Highway 142 marker. The visual elements are a direct representation of the standardization of road signage that occurred during this era.

Color and Form

The design adheres to a simple and impactful color palette. A pristine white square serves as the background, symbolizing clarity and the straightforwardness of the state's roadways. A thin, black border cleanly outlines the square, providing definition and ensuring the sign is readily visible from any distance.

Symbolism of the Number

Centered boldly on the white square is the number "142", rendered in large, black, sans-serif numerals. This single element is a strong symbol of efficiency and modernity. Abandoning the longer "WISCONSIN" or the abbreviated "WIS" in the preceding signs, the plain numeral underscores the focus on navigation and efficient travel. The bold typeface ensures quick and easy identification.

Overall Representation

The design of this shot glass captures a specific point in the evolution of Wisconsin road signage. It represents a streamlined approach to information, prioritizing readability and ease of use for drivers. More broadly, it symbolizes the rise of modernity in infrastructure and the simplifying of information for the benefit of the user.

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.
