My Story

Hello,

     I'm Tom Allen. I've been a collector of license plates for over 50 years, specializing in all types and years of Kansas plates and have been a member of the Automobile License Plate Collector's Association (A.L.P.C.A.) since 1974. This website was started on February 5th, 2012.

    The Kansas Year Of Manufacturer law allows an owner of any car, truck or motorcycle that is at least 35 years old and qualifies as an antique vehicle to register and use an original Kansas license plate from the same year as the vehicle in lieu of a regular antique plate. Click on the "Model Year Law" tab at the top of this page to learn more about this law.

     I collect plates from all over the world, but in particular, I collect every year for every type of Kansas plate issued. Another area in which I specialize is WWII era military base access plates and WWII related license plate toppers. While these two areas encompass the bulk of my collection, I have collected hundreds of plates from all over the world as well. Click on MY WANT LIST from the dropdown menu for a partial list of what I'm looking for.

    I am always looking to buy quality Kansas plates as well as plates from elsewhere to add to my collection or as inventory for my website. If you have plates and are looking to sell or trade, please contact me at my email address, DeansBooks1426KS@gmail.com.
