My memory says black/yellow plates were issued in the 50's and 60's, but not real sure. Can anybody provide some history? When did the Sunshine State switch to the blue/yellow plates? And when did blue change to white (if I have the sequence right)?
I just bought a 914-6 with blue plates. Could they be original or were the plates black in 1970? |
