Question 1932 Hoover License Plate Attachment

I have an original Hoover license plate type attachment. It measures 12 x 4 inches and has slot cuts in the four corners like a license plate of that period would. Assuming that your Model A is from a state that requires two plates to be displayed as New Jersey still is and was at that time, how were these plates displayed?

Most probably attached to the license plate, probably in the front as rear mount either hits the/blocks tail light or hits fender. JMO

You might also make a bracket to mount it to the rear bumper off one of the mounting bolts.

As soon as I get a Hoover plate, that's what I'm going to do.

I already have a Connecticut AAA badge on my front of my car. I figure that if I stick more plates, I'll block too much airflow to the radiator.

I also just got a Hartford AAA badge, small enough to mount on top left side of rear license plate.

I've seen people attach another license plate bracket to the right taillight and mount the "Hoover" plate on the right taillight.
