Massachusetts stopped issuing plates every year in 1949 - plates were issued for two years starting in 1949.  As a result, there are no dated license plates for the even years from 1950 - 1962.  However, plates issued in those even years to new registrants can be found if you know the right prefixes.  1950: H, J and some K (started Sept 49), 1952: E and P, 1954: E, P and L, 1956: X and N, 1958: U and X, 1960: F, X and U, and 1962: J, R, U, and X.  Massachusetts began issuing windshield stickers to verify registration in 1950. Massacusetts issued these windshield stickers each year that they did not issue plates.
