Does anyone know if anybody reproduces this Tag ?
If not I will try to have one reproduced. Also anyone know what the top line reads above PLYMOUTH MOTOR CORP.?

Might be able to clean it up better if I can remove the extra paint without further damage.

Any idea what it represents.
Chet,
I had some reproduced a few years ago. My intent was to make them available at cost to members. When the manufacturer ( a local trophy shop) got the design right, I asked them to make a batch, but they told me they lost the digital file. Anyway I have a few of them. You can have one if you want, but you have to drill the two holes yourself. The prototypes were approved by the Club as correct.

That's Great John, I'll shoot you an email.
I was told it meant Marca de Fabrica Meccanica Industria Registrada , or the manufacture's trade mark is registered. It seems to make sense.
Eric
Eric, you are right on. I googled it and it translates exactly to what you posted. Interesting that it is Spanish I thought maybe Latin or maybe they are synonymous but definitely a legal term.
Very interesting, Thanks...

John I'll take one too, if you have an extra. I went to look at mine and there wasn't one....
I'll check and see how many good ones I have. Some were prototypes that may not be good enough.

John,
I'm going to try and remove the paint off of my original tag and if it comes out OK I will probably use it. Its nice to keep some patina. Since Dave doesn't have a Tag keep him in mind as a first priority.
Chet...
OK. I will look and see how many I have and which ones are good enough.
Dave,
Send me your address.

I purchased this one for my 1930 30U from ebay --dataplates4u was the seller
It looks great to me. I was listed as 1938 to 1950 dataplate.
The attachment shows my original and the new one.
That plate looks very good. I was able to clean mine up but might also see if these are still for sale.
Good to know.
