1939 Michigan Commercial License Plate

Found this today at a dump I discovered. There were so many crier bottles that were broken there (medicines, milks, breweries, and pop). I think the kids smashed all the bottles from a near by school Some of the bottles were from the late 1800s. I hope to go back soon, but am just glad to get out treasure hunting.

I am a college student looking for a digging partner in the Clarkston and Canton area if anybody is interested.

Neat find. We have a little dump near us with the same issue....glass and rocks thrown together so it is rare to find anything whole.
