About 1 DBY
Reverse dateless plates place the numbers before the original local index letters, so the registration carries local authority provenance without a year marker. The BY index mark traces back to Croydon, now associated with London. This reverse sequence was issued from the 1950s onwards as earlier dateless runs became exhausted. At 4 characters, 1 DBY is shorter than most registrations in this era.
