Kansas

PASSENGER, embossed "76" base

Passenger:  Up to 1975, Kansas issued plates yearly.  Beginning with the embossed "76" plate, renewal stickers were issued yearly after a new multiyear base was issued, the first year of expiration being embossed or screened onto the plate in the stickerwell.  Because Kansas county codes the plates, and, at times, includes a month code, there are a number of possible varieties.  I have a very nice (and large) selection of varieties, including the county and month codes.  So that downloading a Kansas passenger page doesn't overload your computer, I have split them into the following bases, each being a link to my website page of that type:

Pre "76" base (yearly issues)

embossed "76" base

"81" wheat base

1983 sunflower base

"89" wheat base

"95" wheat base

"02" capitol base

Embossed "76" base:  The following design began in 1976 and ran through 1980 ("80" expiration stickers).  The stacked 2-letter prefix is the county code (see Kansas county codes page).  The letter following the county code is the expiration month code (see passenger month codes page).

1976 (white/blue) Morris County, April vg $2.00 (actual plate)

1976 (white/blue) Sumner County, May m $3.00 (actual plate)
