View Full Version : Looking for American license plates
Don Fernando
03-19-2014, 01:06 AM
I recently bought a home and right now I am building a walk in humidor in my man cave (the man cave is approx 215 square feet, the walk in will be approx 40 sf). Now as decoration I have plenty of cigar related stuff but I would love to hang a whole lot of American license plates on the wall. As I am not based stateside it is quite hard to find these, that's why I am reaching out to my cigar buddies here at Cigar Asylum. Who has old license plates lying around and is willing to send them to me?

Shoot me a PM if you would like a Motorcycle plate from VA? Not sure if you are looking for Auto plates only.

Wow, this is going fast. It would be a shame to have that lovely wallpaper (http://i1006.photobucket.com/albums/af186/cigarguide/Casa%20Fernando%20Lounge/1922079_10202612294582329_706965678_n_zps031a39c8. jpg) (NSFW and/or NSF epileptics) totally covered by all those license plates :r

Ferdie- what condition? I have some 1940s plates that are fairly ugly at this point! Another place to check is Ebay.
Sorry, I can't seem to find it.
Maybe because you live in Mississippi :sh

I've had plates from Connecticut, Oklahoma, Indiana, California, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Arizona. Arizona was the only one left that I thought I still had. No luck, though.

I may have a Delaware plate soon. If so it is most definitely yours. Voted ugliest plate in the Nation recently...

Ferdie - I have every plate from Missouri from 1967 - 1979, except for 1969, there is only one of them and that is the year I was born. :D
Most are in pretty good shape considering their age. These were my grandfathers and somehow I got them, I have plenty of other things to remember him by and I'd love to see these go to good use. So let me know.

It's amazing how things have changed, I moved from MA to CA, turns out MA cancelled and suspended my license because I never returned "their plate" when I moved, I remember having plates all over the place, don't know if it's only MA that does it now but Taxachusetts will always find a way to stick it to you, it ended up costing me $150 in fines payed to MA to get my Cali license and I still had to send back the plates first. heh.

I have FL but I see that is on its way.
I may have an old light blue NJ one in the garage somewhere.
Will need to get the courage to fight off whatever may be living in there since in FL, that is our "basement".
Well PM me your add. and I will get you a WY. plate sent to you.

Last couple of days have been crazy, 15 hour workdays so not a lot time to tidy the humidor or doing some decorations but I'll have more time next week. Will update the topics
