1929 Oddball Collection
In honor of my father, Robert Taylor, who has been my collecting buddy for the
last 30 years, I collect license plates from 1929 - the year of his birth.  However,
he and I have a fondness for the rare and obscure, so I don't just collect
ANY
1929 plates.  Rather, I collect the oddest and most unusual 1929 plates I can find.  
The plates below are my little tribute to him.
