2nd row, 1st photo - shows one of the truly (in 1930's) rare "Stone Guard"; now quite common. As well as 'eye brows' of the headlites - very rare originally, now much more common. Notice that the originals were quite a bit larger than today's reproductions.

Photo 1 shows a Tunbridge Vermont World's Fair license plate on a car, and I have an identical plate acquired years ago.
