Generic NYC transit and transportation props

[Triborough]

I created in Illustrator some generic NYC transportation props. Looks similar to the real thing but different enough and from non existent agencies.

Very cool stuff! Thanks for sharing.

It basically looks like what the bottom of my pockets looked like back when I lived in NYC.

The only thing I'm looking at: is $13.50 accurate for a one way peak hour Princeton Junction to New York Penn Station trip? Seems cheap to me, but I have only been to Princeton's train station a small number of times.

About the only other thing you're missing there is a generic taxi receipt...which is basically the simplest looking receipt in the world. Add one of those and you could convince someone you've had a whole fake trip in NYC. :lol

Keep up the awesome work.

It is about $3 off, but I wanted to have some less obvious differences between the real thing.

That is going to be in the next round along with an orange parking ticket envelope.

Keep up the awesome work.

Thanks again!

Fair enough. With that lower price, I briefly had a flashback to about 4 years ago when you could buy a round trip between NYP and Trenton (The full length of that route) for $21.50.

I miss those days. :lol

Can't wait to see what else you come up with. NYC just lends itself to paper props, from local newspapers, to Learning Annex flyers, to Central Parking receipts, to playbills and theater tickets, and even parking tickets and the MTA flyers to announce schedule changes on the subway...it's a city built on so much paper and you're doing it all justice.
