1977

Vanity plates were offered on the "N.J." straw base as well, I just don't have any yet.

1991

Blue base 7-character vanities were issued for just a short period in 1991 before the base change.

Easy and to the point!

This one is missing the "Garden State" caption.

This vanity is on my car. Back in the day when 7-character plates were issued for a short time, they stopped at ADJ9999. The next plate would have been ADK1000, since we don't use leading 0's. People often think ADK means "Adirondacks", though.

See anything wrong with this? I got my plates remade and they came back wrong. I'm not complaining, they make an awesome set! (obviously I did not put them on my car)

2008, second-generation 3M sheeting

Made on the new boxless style sheeting.

Even though this plate was made in 2008, it still has sticker boxes. As far as I know, all special issues still have them. By the way, this one is currently on my car.
