1887 AUTO LICENSE PLATES
 IN DEMAND BY TOURISTS

What may be a new idea in souv- enirs came to the attention of a lo- cal business man during the week when a tourist passenger called at his home and requested some 1897 license plates. He had seen the de- livery car down town and traced it to it's home location, he stated, and if such plates were available, he would be very glad to get them.
 Needless to say his request was granted and while the presentation was being made at the place of bus mess, another tourist Ca lady this time) arrived and asked for matches the advertising variety. She did not want them for immediate use but for card tables, and was de- lighted to be given a small carton. Both souvenirs will advertise Wran- gell in some eastern state.
