Bang on Brian...no metal plates were issued in Ontario in 1944, due to the shortage of metal "for the war effort". One placed a decal in one's windscreen to validate their plate.
Another trivia question:...in what other, later, year did this "decal vs plate " situation occur?

Would $60 for a pair of 1942 ON plates be a fair price. I found a pair that are good with the MTO and I'd like to use them on my Jeep.
Ive just never really looked around too much. What have others paid?

.......they used to be $25 to 35 at flea markets.
Price went up when the province started allowing YOM..... strange coincidence..... however NONE of the sellers will give you your money back if MOT says the numbers can't be used. A good original with good paint is probhably worth up to $75.... Some dealers sell good repainted plates for around $60...... I paid $30 for a 1940 T trailer plate in very good original condition.... Will check at Barrie next weekend just for comparison... Bob

Does anyone know if the 1944 practice of issuing a decal instead of a plate was carried over to 1945, or had the metal shortage been declared over?

See http://www.canplates.com/ontario.html - from what I can glean, my plate was a dealer plate...
