New York Taxi Cab Magnet: The perfect quirky gift that sticks around!

 

Fun Fact: Checker Cabs have been NYC icons since 1922. From horse-drawn carriages to hybrids, New Yorkers love their cabs, but nothing beats the classic Checker! Did you know the first U.S. taxis were red and green? The yellow hue (DuPont M6284) became law in the 1960s. John Hertz started the Yellow Cab Company in Chicago to make his fleet stand out. A study showed yellow was the most noticeable color. Talk about a bright idea!

 

Why not hail a real yellow cab and visit the Museum of the City of New York? It’s a ride worth taking! Located on Fifth Avenue at 103rd St. (Ramp access at 104th St. for a smoother ride!)
