Default Seeking Source(s) for 50th Anniversary License Plates

In 2011, the Orange County Model A Ford Club will celebrate its 50th anniversary. We are seeking a source for a custom designed license plate to commerate the event. If the price is right, we might provide them to attendees at our 50th annual pancake breakfast next spring. Any help would be appreciated.

I have used MVLS. The owner's name is Mark. They did a great job on our New England Meet plates in 2007. http://www.mvls.com/

I have no idea how much they cost, but you should see the AACA 75th Anniversary plate produced by Michigan Graphics & Awards! They are impressive.

Private Message me your E-Mail address and I will have my friend contact you. He is a fantastic Graphic Designer. He makes these plates at his home. You can give him an idea of what you want and he would design some and send you e-mails of his designs.

Bought mine on Ebay, cost about 30 bucks. I'm very satisfied with them.

Thanks for all the information so far. What we are looking for is a source for plastic license plates (read as lower cost) than aluminum plates. One of the ideas we are looking at for our 50th annual pancake breakfast is providing a numbered commerative plate to the first 350 or 400 cars.

The MARC national meet at Williamsburg a few years ago had plastic plates for each registration number. Anyone know the source for those?

Any sign shop. Try a Sign A Rama. There are at least 7 in Orange County.

Thanks for the info. Unfortunately they do only raised number plates. I'm looking for a printed or silk screened flat plate with numbers of 001 to 350 or so.
