Arizona's Centennial Plate Wins Best License Plate In US!

Arizona's beautiful Centennial License Plate celebrating the 100th year anniversary of Arizona's Statehood was awarded first place in the United States by The Automobile License Plate Collectors Association.

“I am pleased to announce that the Great State of Arizona is this year’s recipient of ALPCA’s Best Plate Award,” said ALPCA President Greg Gibson. ALPCA members worldwide were asked to vote based on two judging criteria: the overall attractiveness of the license plate design and its legibility as a tool for public safety and law enforcement. “Congratulations to the residents of the Grand Canyon State, Governor Jan Brewer and to the license plate design team in Phoenix,” stated Gibson. ALPCA’s Best Plate Award Coordinator Gus Oliver said “Many of the members commented about the combination of boldness and simplicity of this plate. I knew it had an excellent chance of winning the moment I first saw it.”
