I recently went to the Spring Rod Run in Pigeon Forge , Tn. ! There is a vendor , that comes to the event every year , that refurbishes old plates from most all states . His prices are a little steep ( for me ) but he does a good business and the plates look better than new ! I think I may have his business card but will have to see if I can find it ? I'm sure he probably goes to many other events as well so you might catch him at one near you .
