CowParade "N.Y.C. Taxi 2000" Collectible Cow Figurine - Authentic Marked, 7" New York City

Hail this one! A fantastic and highly collectible CowParade "N.Y.C. Taxi 2000" figurine — one of the most iconic designs from the legendary CowParade public art event that took over the streets of New York City in the summer of 2000. Over 500 life-size decorated cow sculptures were displayed throughout Manhattan, and the miniature collectible replicas became instant must-haves for New York City lovers and cow collectors alike.

This example is painted in classic NYC taxi yellow with a bold black and gold checkerboard stripe running the length of the body — just like a real New York cab. The body is printed with an authentic-looking NYC taxi fare schedule: "$2.00 Initial Charge, 30¢ Per ½ Mile, 20¢ Per Minute Stopped or Slow Traffic, 50¢ Night Surcharge" — a wonderful period detail capturing the exact fares of the year 2000. "N.Y.C. TAXI 2000" is boldly lettered on both sides, and the number 2000 appears on the forehead and hindquarters. Silver horns and black hooves complete the look.

Marked on the bottom confirming authenticity. A wonderful piece of New York City memorabilia and pop culture history.
