About 52 LO

Reverse dateless plates place the numbers before the original local index letters, so the registration carries local authority provenance without a year marker. The LO index mark traces back to London (NW), now associated with London. This reverse sequence was issued from the 1950s onwards as earlier dateless runs became exhausted. At 4 characters, 52 LO is shorter than most registrations in this era.
