If you are reading this page then you probably want to know who I am and what I am doing here. I hope I can answer your questions.

Born in Murg, Germany and migrated to Melbourne, Australia (at 2 years of age) I now live in the Australian Capital Territory (ACT). I have lived in the ACT and surrounding district since 1973. One of the things that sparked my interest was the existence of numeral only number plates - number plates beginning with just a single 1 through to 99-999.

Back in about 1985 I moved to a new rental house and found a few old number plates under the house. This is why I started collecting them. Fast forward to now and I have managed to accumulate the most comprehensive collection of number plates for the ACT and former Federal Capital Territory (1913 to 1938).

I am here simply because I would like to share my knowledge and show examples of my plates. While I think books and catalogs do have a place, the digital world is a big improvement as new information can be easily updated to existing databases and shared without the need to reprint.

At the time of writing this, I am a complete novice and must now spend time learning the ropes of Wikipedia as my only contribution to date has been cash.
