The
corporate seal of New York City shows an eagle, windmill sails, an
American Indian, a sailor and two beavers, and has been in use since 1686.
In an announcement including the quote that this emblem has never been
popular with t-shirt designers, city officials are
considering the creation of a trademarked "NYC" logo as part of a new
marketing plan aimed at raising cash to plug the city's growing budget gap.
