Manhole Cover Door Mats
This is a kicky and fun home accessory. Manhole Cover Doormats made out of 100% recycled truck tires. I like the fact that they're made out of repurposed material, and I love the idea of having your favorite city sewer lid to welcome guests to your front door. Right now you can only get New York, Paris, and London, the "chicest sewers of the world" apparently, but I would love it if I could get a hold of one of these styled after some place a little more obscure and strange.

There are seven designs at http://www.prankplace.com/manhole.htm : New York, Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, London, Paris and San Francisco.
The Boston design is suspect; I don't think any sewers use the honeycomb pattern like that. Those are for telecom and electrical utilities.
