Show Description
Shep spends the show discussing nicknames of cities and states, the colors of the different states license plates and their mottos. He tells about the cerial premium that offered a miniature license plate in each box. He collected them all but could never find New York. Years later when he was at a meeting in New York he met the man who was responsible for the promotion. He said that was on purpose. In New York you couldn't find an Illinois plate! He had Shep come back to his office and gave him one of the New York Plates from a drawer filled with all sorts of the old premiums.
