I found two 1943 license plate tags yesterday. Pennsylvania did not issue a full metal license plate in 1943 in an effort to conserve metal for the war effort. Put one the plate of the 42. Amazing what is still out there....
Thanks for all the recent posts. Winter is almost over.


I love the details like these '43 license plate tabs! When I go to a car show/cruise, what impresses me the most is the way people show their cars with period correct memorabilia, accessories, pamphlets, accessories, etc. external to the car itself. Even period correct non-automotive things like magazines, picnic baskets, vacation souvenirs, etc. A WWII era vehicle is ripe for WWII wartime memorabilia.
