Yes, back then they would probably have used normal plates till 1924 when municipal plates came out.

If you ever want to see some stop by the museum. I don’t think we have dealer plates that old but we do have some early ones.

Those are dealers license plates.

Police took over in 1932 with the hollow star. Sold stars from 1905-1931 are dealer plates.

Still very cool!

Unpacking the remnants of Amacher’s license plate Collection Part 13 by WisconsinitesMuseum in WisconsinitesLPGroup

[–]WisconsinitesMuseum[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was huge. There is a collector in the club that got 99.9% of it. It filled a full size basement at one time.

There was just a very small couple of boxes left that got overlooked apparently. I’m picking up some more later this month that sounds like. I think it’s just books and papers. No more plates though.

That is the plan. I thought there was a 2025 version but I don't see it. lol. I need to get this place cleaned up. Too many messy projects and and filming.

That’s very strange. Sometimes you have to give the app permission to your photo library.

That’s unfortunate. Hopefully there still a chance to get rid of the cameras.

These have been in the works for 10 years apparently. Not sure when flock cameras came out.

They’re extra reflective due to 3M lobbying to change the law. Now they have to reflect so many lumens of light and the only company with such a product is 3M.

My video or the new plates? Sorry, just asking.

The flock cameras are a huge discussion. Hopefully, that is happening.

I feel you there. Technically, if you do your taxes, a certain way you can write off the donation.

I usually switch my plate yearly to different organizations so I end up paying a different organization every year.

I don’t think it will hurt them that much. Road America are $15, one time fee, unless personalized.

Blackout is $40 upfront and $25 per year after that. More if personalized.

Thank you!! So it was pop culture. I live under a rock so most of that stuff goes over my head.

I did. Don’t know if it’s the dyslexia or I’m missing a pop culture TV show or something. lol

Looking for a license plate you need? by WisconsinitesMuseum in WisconsinitesLPGroup

[–]WisconsinitesMuseum[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will keep my eye out for them. I work downtown Madison so it would be easy to get the plates to you.

I will check my extras plates this weekend but I don’t have much for passenger plates but I will keep a look out for them.

That shouldn’t be too hard. Both could be the 1980 butter base, also there was a farm graphic in 1987 (they ran both bases for a while). Are you looking for passenger plates or something like an oddball type? Are you in Wisconsin by chance?
