This is a pristine, uncirculated "Continuing Trip Ticket" from the BMT (Brooklyn-Manhattan Transit Corporation) issued on June 1, 1933.

Condition and Provenance
This item is part of a substantial, high-grade transit collection recently added to our store, featuring decades of curated New York City history. This ticket was recently removed from a meticulously maintained archival collector’s binder. As such, the reverse side features a small piece of collector's tape from its original mounting. The tape has no ill effect on the structural integrity or quality of the paper other than its visual presence on the back. The ticket remains crisp, unpunched, and in uncirculated condition.

Collector Highlights
This is ticket #00002, an ultra-low serial number representing the second ticket in the book for the Meeker Ave. Line on that Thursday morning in 1933. This "Continuing Trip" specimen was valid for a final ride on the Graham Av. or Nassau Ave. lines. It captures the specific feeder-to-trunk logistics of the North Brooklyn trolley network during the Great Depression. Unlike standard circulated transfers, this specimen is unpunched and uncirculated, likely preserved as an archive or file copy.

Historical Context
The Meeker Avenue corridor has undergone massive changes since 1933, most notably with the construction of the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway (BQE). This ticket documents the era when surface trolleys were the primary way to move between the residential and industrial sectors of Greenpoint and Williamsburg. These routes were eventually phased out as the city transitioned to a fully motorized bus fleet.
