How this token ended up on the property of a transit-loving map designer and upcoming book author is a mystery.
Ever find something completely random that made you go “What the…?!?! 3/3 @mta.info
It was crusty and rusted, but the bullseye design was clear - faintly reading “NYC Transit Authority.”
Disclaimer: I own a small collection of NYC tokens, all accounted for and stored safely. This one is not from my collection. 2/3
Mowing my yard, I spotted a rusty piece of metal. I always remove anything that could smash a window… and dug up a NYC Transit Authority “Bullseye” token from 1986 - in California, 3,000 miles from NYC. 1/3

Thanks. I was attempting to see if this looks good. The stroke on the map is 18 point so I divided among the 4 strokes on the SW loop and 5 strokes on the NE loop. (20x30 print). I’m not sure if one can view these colors clearly thou’
I may try with black loop 🤔

…Red and Blue are separate subway lines, and Skokie doesn’t go down there. The other colors (gray) represent Loop service.
My next project, I will figure out full color lines, if that doesn’t work for the loop, I’d go with Loop inset.
Enjoy! (2/2)
Today’s (2025) Chicago transit lines, reimagined through a 1930s lens. Simple, elegant, retro.
Where’s the Brown, Orange, Pink, Green, and Purple lines? Remember: I’m recreating a 1930 map, where lines had division names/colors. (1/2)
