WIS 17 1927 (Wisconsin) (Road Sign) Shot Glass 1.5oz

This design reproduces the Wisconsin State Trunk Highway 17 marker of 1927, a route badge carrying the state code WIS above large bold numerals.

Visual Elements & Composition

The sign is a flat, two-colour badge in black on white, with the white field dominating. The shape is a cut-out shield, and the letters W I S sit above the route number 17, which is the largest element and carries the design. The arrangement is simple and centred, built for quick reading from a passing car.

Meaning & Symbolism

Highway 17 was part of Wisconsin's original state trunk highway system, created in 1917 and signed in the early 1920s. In 1926 much of its length was absorbed into U.S. Highway 51, so this 1927 marker comes from the last years the number was in use. The shield outline echoes the federal U.S. shield of the period, while the WIS lettering keeps the state identity on the sign, a pairing that defined Wisconsin's markers from 1926 to 1948.

In the Hand of a Shot

A shot glass is small and held close, so the badge is seen at arm's length as the glass comes up. The number is the first thing the eye lands on, and the shield's sharp outline reads clearly at that size.

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.
