design technolgy and road safety.\u00a0 This complex regisation has a normal embossed rectangular license plate, but in this case the registration numbers are cut out as a stencil.\u00a0 Great care was done to preserve some standalone elements in the numbers, like the dot in the center of the &#8220;4&#8221; and the &#8220;9&#8221;.\u00a0 Then th plate had a steel box compartment riveted to the plate to allow for the separate glass bead sheet to be inserted behind the stencilled openings.\u00a0<\/p><p>In 1936, most but not all Mexico states created this design, but there are several distinct types of manufacture<\/p><p>Type 1: Taller rectangular plate with &#8220;1936&#8221; date (some with yellow Pat. Pending decal)<\/p><p>Type 2: Shorter rectangular plate with &#8220;936&#8221; date.\u00a0<\/p><p>Type 3: No new reflectorized plate. Instead, a small vertical &#8220;1936&#8221; tab used over 1935 plate.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element
