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.
