## About this plate

ANTIQUE / MODEL-YEAR PLATES. Included because of what it does to the parse layer rather than for its own sake: like North Dakota's year-of-manufacture option, a Kansas model-year plate means a LAWFULLY DISPLAYED, CURRENTLY REGISTERED vehicle may be wearing a plate from any past decade. Any inference from plate design to registration era must therefore carry an antique-regime exception, and this series exists partly to make that exception visible in the data.
