Motorbike (1920 to 1949) |
 |
|
Motorbike plates were first introduced
in 1920 and continued to be issued until 1949. In the early years they
were sometimes referred to as Motor Bicycles or Bicycle Side Motors; today
they are more commonly referred to as Mopeds,
short for motorized-pedalcycle. Also, in the years up thru 1933 the
letter O was used on Motorbikes as a prefix to differentiate between them
and Motorcycle plates. At least up through
1927 the letter O and the number 0 were the same size which makes earlier
plates appear to be all numeric. From 1934 thru 1949 the O was
replaced with MB stacked on the left or right side, then with the
introduction of the map outline in '38 all plates had the MB stacked on the
right side. It should be noted that Motor Boat plates also used the MB
designator between 1955 and 1963. Thanks to Eric Tanner for some
guidance with this section. |

Andrew Turnbull provided research on the
evolution of PA's Motorcycle plates. He unveiled the fact that while
almost all '77-base plates had narrow bolt hole spacing, there was a run of
plates toward the end where the wide hole spacing came about in preparation
for the '85 issue. This group is now referred to as Format 4B. |
