WIS 43 1970 (Wisconsin) (Road Sign) Shot Glass Design

This shot glass design captures the essence of a bygone era in Wisconsin's highway history, specifically the signage for WIS 43 in 1970. The artwork directly emulates the official state highway markers of the time.

Sign Elements

The design features a stark, yet clean, visual representation of the sign itself. It presents a simple, square white shield with a thin black border, the standard format for Wisconsin state highway markers in 1970.

Numeral Representation

At the heart of the design, the bold black numeral "43" is prominently displayed, centered within the white shield. This large numeral is the sole identifier of the route, reflecting the evolution in Wisconsin's highway sign design where the “WIS” prefix had been removed by this point.

Symbolism and Meaning

The design encapsulates the spirit of the 1970s and the transition of Wisconsin's highway system. The minimalist approach of the sign reflects the functionality of the era. The clear number "43" directly represents the original WIS 43 route that connected Beloit to Sheboygan, and also acknowledges its co-existence with the soon-to-be-completed Interstate 43.

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.
