Found this in my junk 1914 cal plate

Not the best of condition but interesting anyway. I'm thinking of putting it on the wall as a decoration in the gun room. Anybody found any wall hangers to adorn their man cave, garage or den lately?....Tedd

I would say that assumming that it has never been refinished, it looks to be in remarkably good condition considering that it is only 100 years old. I collect and display tags in my shop, many from countries I've visited. I think it would be a really neat conversation peice.

x2 A couple of brads would work well to hang it on the wall.

Cool! I've got a couple of the early porcelain license plates from California too. They make great decorations hanging on any wall

Looks like the 1912 Porcelain Plate from New York but which went undated. My father left his license plate collection - New York 1910 through 2000's. I upgraded the collection to fill in pairs where he had a single. The 1911 plates next to the 1912's are restored. The 1912's (pair) are original
