“Do you recognize the Make and Model of this car? The “OF” on the plate signified the State and County. The “19” signified the car number assigned. This license plate was used until 1988. Then Lt. Jim Karnes suggested changes to the Buckeye State Sheriffs’ Association (BSSA) for approval. BSSA approved the changes and submitted to the Governors Uniform Car Making Commission (GUCMC) for their approval. Once Approved the new license plate was put into use. Lt Karnes received recognition from the GUCMC for designing the new plate. The designated County number is used for the first time and appears inside the silhouette of the State of Ohio. This design is the plate we currently use on today’s cruisers!”
