Description: White / Black3,137,863 IssuedA little history of the Indiana License Plates Indiana issued license plates in pairs until May 22, 1943. Because of the metal shortage caused by World War II, Governor Henry Shricker asked Hoosiers to turn in their collections of old license plates, along with their front 1942 plates. This load of metal was sent to the Indiana State Prison to be reprocessed into the 1944 plates. Hoosiers completed 1943 with only the plate on the rear of their vehicle--which was a tab for 1943 bolted over the full 1942 plate. Hoosiers again fixed a smaller tab for 1944 over the 1942 license plate, in a war-effort to save metal. Indiana recorded its first year of issuing over one million license plates in 1948. The U.S. Census Bureau estimated that Indiana's population in 1950 was 3,934,000. Indiana license plates were issued with only numerals until 1950, when a prefix consisting of two alpha characters was assigned, with "AA" through "AY" for Marion County, all the way through "ZX" through "ZZ" for Miami County. The 1952 issuance was a tab placed over the 1951 license plate in an effort to conserve metal. In 1953, Hoosiers were again asked to bolt a tab over the 1951 license plate. 1966 saw the use of reflective sheeting on the license plates to provide better visibility at night.I have other Vintage Rare Indiana plates that I will be listing so please check back often. * License plates that will be listed so keep checking back.
