A stock certificate for the Hudson & Manhattan Raolroad.
:
1) New York is all about the stock market. You need a stock certificate.
2) New York is also all about the Hudson river, the port, and railroads. This certificate has elements of each.
3) The ships in the image represent Teddy Roosevelt's 'White Fleet'. TR was a very famous New Yorker, being police commissioner of NY before he was president. The White Fleet is a famous part of 'speak softly and carry a big stick' foreign policy.
4) It show parts of lower Manhattan and New Jersey, all vital to NY history.
