About 1948 JP

Reverse dateless plates place the numbers before the original local index letters, so the registration carries local authority provenance without a year marker. The JP index mark traces back to Wigan, now associated with Greater Manchester. This reverse sequence was issued from the 1950s onwards as earlier dateless runs became exhausted. At 6 characters, 1948 JP is a standard-length registration for this era.
