Is that an orginal penguin shaker? They make them new but I would love to have one of the originals. I have a lot of the glass recipe shakers, and the cobalt blue one with silver fish, but my collection is pretty meager. I also use the dial-o-matic metal shaker most of the time. It has a large capacity, and since metal gets colder much faster then glass it chills the drink more quickly so I prefer metal over glass. I usually measure with a jigger so it doesn't matter to me if the shaker has measuring marks on it. But sometimes I'll use a large marked measuring glass when making a batch, then I use a metal mixing can over the top, tap it to seal, shake, and strain with a strainer.
