Seen in midtown, this striped combination of purse, shoes, and belt also included a zebra-themed scarf.

While stopping to shake some rocks out of my shoes I spotted this zebra carpet in an abandoned furniture showroom on Queens Boulevard.

I usually have to settle for zebra patterns and zebra bags in my search for zebras in New York, but this time I spotted a woman riding a zebra bareback in this cover photo for the book Women Travelers: A Century of Trailblazing Adventures 1850-1950, by Alexandra Lapierre. A companion volume, edited by Jane Robinson, is called Unsuitable for Ladies: An Anthology of Women Travellers and also features a cover photo of a woman riding a zebra bareback.

Gemma Gracewood wears a zebra jacket in one of my favorite music videos: The Wellington Ukulele Orchestra's elegiac production of the country song It's a Heartache. A friend from New Zealand sent me a link to this video around Christmas time, 2008, and I have watched it several times since then.
I have noticed this zebra pattern on the wall of a second floor room at a midtown office building.

I believe these zebra figurines are made by the Sandicast company, but I could be mistaken.

Some folks are not impressed by zebra bags. This man yawned as a tourist strolled past with her zebra bag. I guess you could say I was chasing zebra in midtown, because this is the same bag as in the previous picture.

You are not likely to find me at an expensive place like the Edison Ballroom, but this picture outside on 44th Street seems to show that the interior uses zebra patterns for some of its décor. I'll never know for sure.
