Description

The HUMBER SUPER SNIPESB novelty plate features the British Classic, the Humber Super Snipe B which was produced from 1938 to 1967 by British-based Humber Limited. The Rootes Group marketed the car for export, and the Super Snipe was assembled in Australia, commencing in 1953 with the Mark IV. From 1956 the car was available with automatic transmission, but the model was discontinued shortly afterwards. Super Snipes were also assembled in New Zealand for a number of years by Rootes Group and Chrysler importer Todd Motors which later became Mitsubishi New Zealand. Our information comes from Wikipedia and there were lots of Super Snipe models as follows:

1 1938 Pre-war Super Snipe
2 1946-50 Super Snipe Mark I to III
2.1 1936b52 Mk I
2.2 1948-50 Mk II
2.3 1950-52 Mk III
3 1952-57 Mk IV
4 New Super Snipe Series I to V
4.1 1958-59 Series I
4.2 1959-60 Series II
4.3 1960-62 Series III
4.4 1962-64 Series IV
4.5 1964-67 Series V and Va
4.6 1964-67 Humber Imperial

The Rootes Group ceased production of the Series Va version in July 1967, by which time the group was under the control of the American Chrysler Corporation. The last of the big Humbers were assembled by Chrysler in Melbourne, Australia.

This plate has no embossed characters but has a pressed out embossed borderB and is made from high quality aluminium and the artwork applied by a dye sublimation process with a lovely gloss finish. They measure 37 x 13 cm, exactly the same as the traditional fully embossed type of plate and look just like our other Aussie made novelty number plates; even the mounting holes are in exactly the same positions, so they can easily be hung on display indoors or outdoors. For protection during delivery we use extra packing materials to ensure they arrive in tip-top condition

If you would like plates made to your own design, we can easily do this for you.B Virtually anything you want can be created with our modern digital equipment.B The key is good art, and we can do

ANY GRAPHIC! B B ANY DESIGN! B B ANY COLOUR!

Important note about images we provide : Just as we sometimes see that bpricing is subject to change without noticeb, so too are bdesigns subject to change without noticeb. In 99.99% of cases, what you see on Dixiebs website or brochure is what you get. However, there are the odd times when designs have changed in some small way (eg: maybe a logo moves to a different location on the item, or the colour changes). Sometimes this information doesnbt always trickle down until the new designs are manufactured and shipped to Dixie.B We hope this is helpful and understandable.
