License Plate



License plates are a decorative world object seen and mentioned in the wasteland.

Background
Vehicle registration plates, known as license plates, were used to identify motor vehicles before the Great War. The plates were issued by a state agency of the state or territorial government. The appearances of plates were frequently chosen to contain symbols, colors, or slogans associated with the issuing jurisdiction.
