NAZI CAR LICENSE PLATE - FREIBURG BADEN

A GENUINE THIRD REICH AUTOMOBILE LICENSE PLATE
REGISTERED IN THE CITY OF FREIBURG IN BADEN

This is an absolutely authentic 190 x 275 mm (about 7-1/2 x 10-7/8 inches) heavy steel Nazi era license plate for a car registered in Freiburg in Baden, Germany. The 75 mm (3 inch) black letters and numbers are applied directly to the white area in the center of the plate.

When this license plate was taken out of service it still had a proper red stenciled Freiburg 45 mm (1-3/4 inches) Tipschein or Polizei Präsident registration in the upper right corner. A previous Freiburg Tipschein on the upper left side of this license plate has been obliterated with a red V.

The red V and the extra Tipschein mean the plate was from a private vehicle in use after 30 September 1939. This license plate is 100% correct, very rare these days, and in very good used condition. We have a small iron post, two bolts and nuts, and the metal part of the original reflector that was attached to the back side of this license plate through the two holes on the left edge (see photo below). We will be happy to send these parts along with the license plate if requested to do so by the buyer.

As a point of information only for those interested in Third Reich license plates, we point out that the round aluminum disks with a red background like the one shown here, that are often seen at the Stuttgart Germany Militaria Show and other militaria shows, have nothing to do with license plates as far as we can tell from considerable research.

This, in spite of the fact that such aluminum disks are almost always offered by dealers in an authoritative tone as “Nazi license plate disks”. The period photo right shows a Third Reich automobile with a correct license plate. Please note the STENCIL (Schablone) made Tipscheine, not a separate piece of metal.
