    O.K.Honestly what would prefer Tee Shirts Dash Plaques or a $10.00 gift certificate? For something you are never going to use like a sample box of cheese P.S.
    I&#8217;ll take any unwanted Plaques

    After seeing this thread I went and looked at my collection. They go back to mid 70's and man it brought back some great memories. Probably should get them out of the desk drawer and do something with them. I had forgotten that not only do I have ones from Rod Runs, Very Early mini Truck Events (70's) T.S.D. type rally's but also Off Road Racing ones that SCORE used to give us when we raced. thanks for stirring the memories!

    Prepective,I guess,*for the pay to get in,inside shows,when I'd get a plaque back in the late 50's early 60's,it was a big deal,cus not all the rods that tryed could even git into the shows,many were turned away,for not good enough looking,,but some that were nice missed out too from getting there late and having space inside for them. Unfinish cars just didn't make the grade=perimer.
    Back then the plaques were small,but nicely made,some times put on the dash or glove box door but also back window tray or even hung on a cord from the rear view.:cool: What there wroth is up to you,it's kind of how hard was it to get at the time.;)
