Massachusetts 1953 license plate 681589 RMV YOM clear Ford Chevy 1954 error

Description

very nice unrestored 100% original Massachusetts license plate.  1953 issue, number K92457.  14 x 6 inches; white legend on black background.  the plate is completely straight and flat with excellent original paint as seen in the photos.  fresh out of the barn.
the plate appears to have been struck on a slightly larger blank and trimmed down - note the sharp corners on the left side, as well as the mis-centered mounting slots.  just a quirk of the quality control in Charleston, Mass.  after all, what's the worst thing that they'll do if you make a license plate wrong ... throw you in prison?
RMV clear as of 7/7/2021.  may be registered on your 1953 or 1954 vehicle for road use.  perfect for your Ford, Chevy, Plymouth, Studebaker, or DeLorean.
new RMV regulations as of May, 2020 have restricted the quantity of eligible numbers for the YOM program.  instead of the numbers needing to be available in the YOM pool only, they must be overall out of use across all types.  this is because the Mass Pike toll readers were having trouble differentiating types - so all repeated numbers across types (say, regular #123 versus commercial #123 versus YOM #123) are being strenuously forced into retirement, and no new conflicts are being allowed.
approximately 95% of previously eligible plates have been invalidated, but
the plates being offered here have been checked against all types and are guaranteed eligible even with the new RMV rules.
I will personally guarantee this plate, and any other YOM-clear plates that I sell, to be clear for 30 days from the date of purchase.
plates guaranteed old, authentic, and - if applicable - compliant with YOM regulations of the state of their issue. bid with confidence.
plates are more than 3 years old and comply with eBay's policy on this topic. always wear your seatbelt.
