Howdy,

I’m looking for a brass era headlight fork license plate mounting bracket.

Joe, there was one which bolted around the headlight stalk on the electric headlights. It may be the same as the one you are searching for.

Frank, that Canadian one is the one I recall. It should fit all single stork light mountings.

Looks like the Neverout #440 isn't the same as the Canadian mount & could be made quite easily

The bracket pictured clamped to the fork is on my 1912 touring it was on the car in 1960 a complete running car my thought is it is from 1915 or later because the early Manitoba plates are short that is why there is an extra hole so I can put the 12 plates on the car . It is an original Winnipeg Manitoba Canada car built in Walkerville Ontario.

This ad is from 1914 so they are a US item there should be loads of them out there Cheers Colin
