“These transit tokens from New York were discontinued in 1980 and have now been recycled into cuff links, courtesy of their designer Ward Wallau. He spent 11 years petitioning the NY Transit Authority before they finally gave him permission to use them in his jewelry, making them truly special. These unique cuff links are also available with recycled transit tokens from Boston, D.C., San Francisco and Chicago.” These might be fun to make, perhaps out of arcade tokens… Link.

Yeah – I’ve done similar cufflinks out of turn of the century buttons. Fun project. Arcade tokens sound fun. Maybe ill make up a few pairs.

Can someone tell me a source in the US for pre-made blank cufflinks – to which one can affix one’s decoration of choice?
Those NYC token cufflinks are ingenious.

He also is making San Fransico cufflinks and a few other major city theme cufflinks. Cool.
