Governor Bob Riley introduced Alabama’s new general issue license plate design for 2009. Designed by the Department of Tourism, the new look features a beach scene, inspired by the coastal areas of Baldwin County and perhaps Dauphin Island. These tags will phase out the “Stars Fell On Alabama” series issued since 2002.

Alabama, like many other states, changes the general issue license plate every 5 years. Read more about the new tag in the State of Alabama press release http://www.governorpress.alabama.gov/pr/pr-2008-10-07-01-new_tags_photo.asp.
