Heres an interesting link. ARCHIVE: New Jersey Porcelain License Plates

New Jersey first required motorists to be registered and display plates on their
vehicles in 1903. In 1905, the laws were slightly amended, increasing the height
requirement of the numbers from three to four inches. Until the first state-issued
plates came out in 1908, owners had to manufacture these plates themselves.
