{{Use mdy dates|date=January 2019}}Each of the 50 states of the United States of America plus several of its territories and the District of Columbia issued individual passenger license plates for 1914.[1][2][3][4] Passenger baseplatesIn the table below, a light green background indicates that the owner of the vehicle was required to provide their own license plates. These plates are called "prestate" by most collectors. In the prestate era many states only provided the license plate number on a small disc or on paper, and the owner was required to have their license plate(s) made. These early license plates were created from kits that could be purchased at a hardware store, may have been available from automobile clubs or associations, they were forged by blacksmiths or other tradesmen, or the owner may have made their own plate with whatever materials they had on hand. Prestate plates were made from a variety of materials, but most often were made of leather, steel, or wood. | Legend: | Regular state issue plate(s) | Prestate era plate(s) | No plates issued by state or territory |
