    New Plate

     



    So what's a brand new, never issued 1933 Kansas license plate worth (to a Kansas resident, of course )? The brown paper wrapper is from the Kansas State Industrial Reformatory in Hutchinson, KS to the Vehicle Commissioner in Topeka, and the plate is still in a protective plastic covering after almost 78 years. Actually I just realized that it is a PAIR of plates that was advertised as a single!!!

    Yessir, I will be paying a visit to my local DMV to see if it is true that I can turn in my "modern" plates with a vintage plate assigned to my vehicle. We have two "stickers" to designate county and registration number that go on the "modern" plates. Not sure how those are handled, but will find out.

    YOM plates have to be in good condition, generally, for the States that have them to pass. Those will have NO problem, very good find. What are they worth? LOTS.

    Good score!!!

    The way I've seen those kind of sticker requirements handled before is with an add on "flag" usually thin aluminum sheet stock. Don't know how "legal" it is, might be one of those "nobody enforces" kind of things. Here in Wa we've been fortunate so far, it's a one time registration for YOM with use restrictions so no stickers needed.

    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.
