WIS 28 (1919) Road Sign Pint Glass - Design Description

This pint glass celebrates the earliest days of Wisconsin's highway system, featuring the iconic design of the WIS 28 road sign from 1919. The artwork faithfully replicates the original marker, a symbol of early automotive travel and state infrastructure.

A Classic Design: The 1919 Wisconsin Marker

The central design element is a faithful rendition of the WIS 28 road sign. The sign is rendered as a square oriented "on point," forming a diamond shape, a nod to early road signage conventions. Its simple, bold design speaks to the straightforwardness of early road travel.

Color and Elements

The design features a stark contrast: a bright white background, symbolizing clarity and direction. The bold black border and lettering provide a high degree of contrast for readability. The word β€œWIS”, short for Wisconsin, is proudly displayed at the top, immediately identifying its origin. Below, the large, bold black number β€œ28” is prominently centered, clearly marking the route number. This placement of the route number is easily recognizable.

Symbolism

The design is a piece of historical art, evoking a sense of nostalgia for a simpler time when roads were first numbered, and states began to connect. It represents the pioneering spirit of early motorists and the enduring legacy of Wisconsin's highway system, capturing a unique visual record of the era of road signage.

Clear 16 oz (β‰ˆ0.47 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 β€” durable, dishwasher-safe, and ideal for both serving and mixing.

These pints are crafted from 100% clear glass that showcases the drink inside β€” 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 / β‰ˆ0.47 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 β€” 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.
