Cablevision Passport Cover
Travel with a nod to Cablevision, a company whose reach began in the New York metropolitan area and became part of the region's everyday media story. This passport cover is made for collectors who connect the Cablevision name with Long Island, New York City, Optimum, and the evolution of cable television. It offers a distinctive travel companion for international trips, weekend escapes, and meaningful gifts for telecommunications and media-history fans.
Cablevision Systems Corporation was an American cable television company centered on the New York metropolitan area. In the mid-1960s, Charles Dolan built Sterling Manhattan Cable in Manhattan and launched Home Box Office, then sold both to Time Life Inc. He used the proceeds to begin a suburban Long Island system called CableVision. After adopting the Cablevision name, the company expanded through construction and acquisitions across Long Island, New York City, New Jersey, Westchester County, and Connecticut. It later entered the Chicago, Boston, and Cleveland areas, serving 2.9 million subscribers in 19 states by the mid-1990s. Late-1990s transactions consolidated operations around New York, Cleveland, and Boston; a deal with TCI brought 10 New York-area systems to Cablevision. In 2000 it sold systems outside New York. Cablevision acquired Bresnan Communications in 2010, renamed it Optimum West in 2011, and sold it to Charter in 2013. Altice acquired Cablevision on June 21, 2016. Former services continue under Optimum Communications.
