All photos on these pages were taken by Andrew Turnbull over a period of more than 10 years. Each display offers a glimpse at the excitement that happens at license plate hobby events, as well as the dedication that individual collectors have to their hobby.
I have credited the creator of each display when possible; however, this information is not always known.
