Obama’s Mug on D.C. Subway Cards for Inauguration

The subway system in Washington, D.C., is making fare cards featuring President-elect Barack Obama’s image to commemorate his inauguration as the 44th president.

SmarTrip cards with Obama’s smiling face will be available in January, Metro spokesman Stephen Taubenkibel told DCist. Regular fare cards marking the Jan. 20 inauguration will be available in late December.

Images of the Obama card were shown at a recent Metro Board of Directors meeting. See the mock-up below, first posted on DCist.
