01

Artifact Overview

In states that do not require two license plates, car owners could purchase plate inserts to fill that void usually found on the front of the vehicle. These plates tend to reflect a person's interest, affiliation, or civic pride. This plate was used to celebrate the 1982 World's Fair in Knoxville, Tennessee.
