Description

1966 New Hampshire License Plate - singleton - very good - GD 891. I know what you're thinking: "Gosh darn! A '66 from the Granite State!" Thank you for not swearing, but you're right -- here it is! A single plate from that great year of 1966. We were toe-tapping to "California Dreamin'" and "The Last Train to Clarksville" and "Lightnin' Strikes", the latter sung by Lou Christie who sounded as though he was struck in the 'nads when reaching those obnoxious high notes.And at the drive-in theatres that summer, you and your date would have most probably seen "The Bible", the year's number one top grossing Hollywood hit. Yup, the theme probably would have put the kibosh on any type of extracurricular fun that very night, especially when you consider John Huston played the role of God (he was also the director, how appropriate) and George C Scott brought Abraham to life in a stunning characterization. Richard Harris starred as Cain, which surely would have negated the need for any type of birth control that evening. Still, the SOB was nominated for Best Original Music Score at the Academy Awards -- ironically, it lost out to the theme from "Born Free", which brings us back around to the primary function of drive-in theatres.Finally, the '66 World Series was one for the books. The Orioles swept the Dodgers four games to zero. What was incredibly amazing about this match up was Los Angeles' lack of production against a powerhouse Oriole pitching staff. LA scored two runs in the first three innings of Game One and then went into hibernation. For the next 31 innings, the Dodgers managed but 14 hits and DID NOT score a run. That's right -- three shutouts in a row. Baltimore won the final two games 1-0 -- Game Three saw Paul Blair smoke a solo shot; in Game Four, the great Frank Robinson went downtown. Robinson ended up the Series MVP as a result of his incredible defensive skills, speed and timely hitting.So here's to 1966 from scenic New Hampshire. Still scenic, but longing for the days of the Monkees, drive-in movies and Frank Robinson at the plate!
