This is a 1954 "L" prefix commercial vehicle plate from a vehicle, with or without a trailer attached, which was operated on highways for the transportation of materials. It was placed above the regular license plate.
This particular plate was used on a Thirty Ton diesel truck owned by BC cement used to haul quarried limestone from Cobble Hill to Bamberton. It hauled loads 16 hour a day to keep the plant operating. It is from a collection of memorabilia saved by the late son of a former president of BC Cement.
