In the rear view it looks like the plate is in DEEP shadow from the trunk. The last digit is even obscured. I've always understood that 1928 California plates were a deep royal blue with orange letters, so the rear plate looks fine to me. As for the front view, I'm puzzled. Any reason that the front and rear plates might have been different colors?
