WIS 174 (Wisconsin) (Road Sign) Pint Glass Design

This pint glass celebrates the now-defunct Wisconsin State Trunk Highway 174, a piece of Milwaukee history. The design is a faithful reproduction of the road sign that once guided drivers along Lovers Lane Road.

The Iconic Road Sign

At the heart of the design is the classic Wisconsin state highway marker. A crisp, clean white square with slightly rounded corners forms the background. Encircling this is a thin, elegant black border, defining the sign’s shape and providing a visual anchor.

Inside, centered and boldly displayed, is the number "174." The stark black numerals, rendered in a strong, sans-serif font, are the primary focus, immediately communicating the identity of the highway. The lack of any additional text, such as "STATE" or "WIS," speaks to the simple, functional purpose of the sign – to inform and direct.

Meaning and Symbolism

This design evokes a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era of highway travel and local infrastructure. The simplicity of the sign reflects the straightforward function it served: a clear indicator of direction for those navigating the streets of Milwaukee. The design’s boldness and clarity highlight its original purpose of ensuring safe and efficient travel on the city's roadways.

The presence of the road sign on this pint glass creates a unique emblem that is instantly recognizable to those familiar with Wisconsin's highway history.

Clear 16 oz (≈0.47 L) pint glasses made from solid glass with a heavy base for steady placement. Narrower at the bottom for an easier grip and balanced feel — durable, dishwasher-safe, and ideal for both serving and mixing.

These pints are crafted from 100% clear glass that showcases the drink inside — color, clarity and carbonation are all visible. A heavier, solid base reduces tipping and gives the glass a satisfying weight in the hand while the gently tapered body makes holding and carrying more comfortable.

Built to last, the construction resists chipping under normal use and is suitable for busy service environments as well as retail display. One-sided print work reads bright against the clear surface; the overall aesthetic is clean and modern.

  • Material: 100% clear glass for pure clarity and gloss.
  • Capacity: 16 oz (standard U.S. pint / ≈0.47 L).
  • Base: heavy solid glass base reduces tipping and improves balance.
  • Shape: narrower bottom for a comfortable grip and easier carrying.
  • Durability: dishwasher-safe and built for regular use.

Use these glasses for draft pours, mixed drinks, iced beverages and more. Their clear walls show off color and bubbles, which makes them a great choice for menus, tasting flights, and bars where presentation matters.

  1. Serving: ideal for beers, sodas, iced teas and cocktails served cold.
  2. Mixing: also works as a simple mixing glass for shaken or stirred cocktails in casual settings.
  3. Display: clean silhouette fits behind bars, on shelves, or on retail racks.

Quick tip: because the base is heavier, these glasses feel stable on trays and counters — handy when serving multiple drinks at once.

These glasses are dishwasher-safe; place them on the top rack and use a regular household cycle. For best longevity, avoid stacking them tightly and steer clear of high-heat commercial wash cycles when possible.

Hand wash with warm water and mild dish soap when you want to preserve maximum clarity and avoid sudden temperature shocks. Handle by the body, not just the rim, to reduce the chance of accidental chipping.
