Nobody brags like Texans, and many do their braggin' with vanity (personalized) license plates. We have thousands of pairs of new, original and unissued Texas vanity license plates from the 1970's and 1980's.
The meaning of some plates is obvious. They contain words, abbreviations, or someone's initials. Some describe the car they were intended for. Some describe the owner's business or profession. Others take a little head-scratching to decode their hidden meaning. See the "EVOL" plate below? It's "LOVE" backwards (mirrored). Still others leave you wondering just what the heck were they trying to say!
The Texas Antique and Classic registration program does not permit vehicle registration with year-of-manufacture vanity plates, but some people collect them, some give them as gifts, and others decorate with them.
You can collect them by type (names, auto types, professions, etc).
You can give them as a unique gift (with the recipent's name, initials, occupation, or lifestyle). Since all our plates are authentic state-issues, you can be sure that there was only one like it in the year of issue.
You can decorate with vanities, adding a splash of color to shops, garages, children's rooms, family rooms, and game rooms. They are attractive in commercial locations like restaurants, automotive dealerships, and auto parts stores. While providing a splash of decor and color, a mix of a few easy-to-read plates and several that aren't easy to interpret will provide customers a "guessing game" they can play when they must wait.
We have singles and pairs of vanity plates, as noted in their description. Only plates single plates are available individually, as we cannot "split" pairs by selling only one plate from a pair.
