This is true. It could very well be the end of a regular car plate. I have seen older ones that were long & narrow from the teens & 20s. I believe it was 1957 when they passed a federal law that they all had to be a standard size & shape. Here is a 1956 TN plate shaped like the state of Tennessee next to a 57 plate. I also have a Canadian North West Territories plate that's the shape of a polar bear..looks like its only part of the entire plate. I don't know when plates became standardized here, but they used to be all different sizes and designs. It used to be the job of the driver to have his own license plate made. Some plates were associated to the driver, not the car so people would take it with them when they replaced a car.
