My new Dec 69 S from Stewart and Arden didn't have a screen sticker but it did have a S&A sticker along the top of the front and rear number plates. A couple of years later when I replaced the black and silver for black and white, I asked them for another set and they duly obliged.

Re: the white morris on red background version, I would be surprised if that’s genuine, as the colours don’t match company colours. Ie. When all the branding had been blue and white, I doubt they would produce red stickers. Happy to be proven wrong!

Here in the states(New Jersey) in the 50's and the 60"s common place was a metal DLR plate screwed or stuck on the left side of the boot lid /left lower side body.
later printed on a license plate frame more so than on the car itself......
My car was sent from Longbridge works to FG Smiths at Goodmayes. Some further investigation revealed that it was then supplied to the first owner by Grange Motors Brentwood. Smiths were a wholesaler as far as I’ve been able to work out. Grange still exist, at the same site but they’ve long been Aston/Jag/Exotic dealers. I did manage to obtain some branding from them showing how they looked in the late sixties. I agree with mark though that screw on plaques were more likely in the early 60’s than vinyl stickers.

What area and year was your car registered in?

'I Say Ding Dong' in Solihull do a good range of dealer stickers, a few of them are fictitious but most of them are accurate repros of the originals..

Just looked at their website regarding " The Appleyards sticker ". They can't even spell RIPON correctly. :lol: :lol:

Used I say ding dong to make a Janspeed dealer sticker in a style that could of been used back in the day. Of course it’s not original as I doubt they made such a thing but I did it for a bit of fun. They were very good to deal with & asked if they could sell them,& now someone is selling them on eBay….

They certainly were Sole Distributor, there were however 2 or 3 levels of Morris dealers below them in the food chain that they supplied.

Do Italian, mainly Innocenti, dealer stickers count as well?
Here's a selection of mostly pre-BL dealer stickers, all stolen from the depths of the intrenet:

Previous post-

Hi all,
Further to the above post as above, I have managed to obtain this original dealership plate as attached photo but I’m not sure now if I should fit it on my car or not,
Any comments on this subject?
