Illinois 1970 License Plate - 17 841

“Good as per ALPCA standards”


First of all this plate complies with Ebay’s rules since it has expired over 3 years ago (both year AND month are considered) and is not a design that can currently be used on the road. This is sold for collection, display or craft purposes only, not for a vehicle.
Secondly, this IS the plate that you will receive – not one with a different serial number or “similar to” the one scanned.
This is a 1970 Passenger base. The condition is Good, refer to the picture. Note that this was during an era that Illinois plates were quite thin and all that you needed to give a bend or two was look at it wrong. Note that the back of the plate shows some corrosion (but then again WHO displays the back of a plate) -- the front is still displayable.
What man cave, bar or diva den would be complete without a Vintage Land of Lincoln plate on the wall?
You might ask are Illinois plates rather difficult to find: (1) the population base is a robust at 12.8 million (2) there are 750 vehicles registered per 1,000 residents (3) they issue plates in pairs (4) therefore Illinois plates are 4.95% of the plates issued in the US each year.
Shipping to the US is either $3.90 for a first class package or $5.60 for priority mail. Yes, I will combine multiple winnings into one package. I will ship worldwide; natch the postage will be not the same.
If you have any questions or comments just contact me.
I am retired and ship PDQ when your payment arrives. I prefer PayPal.
The first plate that I sold on Ebay was on 12-17-96, so I have been around the block a time or two.
