Hi RV,

When were these used? As far as the number goes, would that be a serial number or same as car number?

They were used up into very early 1914, when the radiator upper tank's inside panel was embossed with a pad for the serial number and the plate was dropped. The number apparently was for the radiator only and had no relation to either the car or the engine number.
