Repurposed/Upcycled License Plate Clipboards

by GadgetSponge Design House

This is the second round of license plate clipboards I've put together so far. I got a hold of two matching pairs of 1975 license plates that were never used. They still had the parchment paper included that listed and displayed the current (1975) signs and traffic law changes to make the driver aware.

Nuts, bolts and washers keep the strong clips firmly in place.
