The ZYZ xxx black CA plate was issued mid-1969. I purchased a new car
in CA in April, 1969, and received ZFY xxx. They were just about to run
out of combinations at this point and as I recall the next ones issued
were with three numbers, then three letters. That new grouping lasted
about a decade, and then it became a number, three letters and three
numbers.
Regarding YOM, I can understand how old black plates become available to
purchase, but how can there be old, unused annual self-adhesive
registration stickers in any useful quantity, since most would have been
used at the time of issue?

Not YOM plates (and apparently not 1958 plates) my car has a pretty
cool looking number on my black plates from the early 60s.
