    Description

    During the commemoration of Hartford's Golden Automobile Jubilee, the predecessor of the Early American plate was made in September of 1947. Also, at that time, the second Glidden Tour for antique automobiles route was in New England and primarily on Connecticut roads. With the Glidden Tour in Connecticut, the Hartford State Armory held an exhibition of antique cars.
    The Exhibition was organized and a special commemorative marker plate for all the Tour cars was designed by Henry Cave, a former engineer with the Pope Automobile Company in Hartford. These plates were made by Scoville Manufacturing Company of Waterbury. The plates used a gold anodized flat aluminum base and had blue lettering and decorative devices with black letters. A temporary registration was issued by the Connecticut Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) and was only valid for the month of September. This was the only special type of issue ever made by the Connecticut DMV. Only 144 pairs were made and only 121 were issued. The first 21 plates were presented to dignitaries
    The Hartford's Golden Automobile Jubilee License Plate was the lowest and rarest Connecticut License Plate ever issued. The Hartford's Golden Automobile Jubilee License Plate has been reproduced. The plate was reproduced as the original plate on the same gold anodized flat aluminum base with the blue lettering and decorative devices and black numbers. The reproduction was limited to the original production 144 plates in numeric sequence.. A Certificate of Authenticity will be issued with each plate (mounted on the reverse side of the plague.) You can select the number of your plate if available. You can contact me about a number before purchasing
    This is your "Golden Opportunity" to own this Limited Edition Hartford's Golden Automobile Jubilee License Plate!
    THIS IS FOR THE PLATE ONLY!  The number of the plate will be under the number 100.
    The wooden Connecticut State shaped plague can be purchased separately.
