I saw a pickup with the super plain black and white Maine plates. Are those still available?

To be specific, you can use "year of manufacture" plates. Maine got black-on-white plates in 1973 (stamped expiration 74) that were renewed with validation stickers. These lasted until 1986-87 when the lobster plates took over.
You can run these plates on an antique, that has a valid antique registration, for the valid antique reasons listed on the DMV affidavit. (Mostly not daily use or for hire.) Just carry your state-issued antique plates with you in the car. The DMV and cops have no record whatsoever of those plates you got at a flea market.

That's not a complete list. No combination plate, antique auto, Animal welfare, firefighter, listed at minimum.

From your link, "The general issue plate is the basic design for any plate. They are issued in a variety of classifications: Antique Auto, Bus, Combination, Commercial, Commercial Tractor, Disability, Disability Motor Home, Farm, Hire, Horseless Carriage, Motor Home, Special Equipment and Street Rod."
Chickadee is general issue.

Not all have pictures there. I think coach and hire are available in plain black and white

I could be wrong, but I think those are antique plates.if I'm not mistaken you can see all the plates available on the BMV website.
