Image	Dates issued	Design	Slogan	Serial format	Serials issued	Notes
	1942, 1943-45	Embossed golden yellow serial on black plate; "19 WISCONSIN 42" at bottom	"AMERICA'S DAIRYLAND" at top	123 456	1 to 772 000	Corners were rounded and plates were revalidated for 1943 with white tabs, for 1944 with green tabs, and for 1945 with white tabs, due to metal conservation for World War II. Front plates were removed and replaced with windshield stickers around 1943. Large plates stopped issuing at 720 000 in 1942 and resumed issuing in 1943.[1]
	Late 1942-late 1943	Embossed golden yellow serial on black plate with border line; "WIS" at bottom left, embossed oval with debossed date in bottom right corner	none	A12, A1B, AB1, ABC, 12A, 1A2, 1AB, A123, 1A23	A00 to ZZZ, 00A to 9ZZ, A000 to Z999, 0A00 to 9K99[1]	Plates were small to save metal for the war. Plates used every serial possible in a three digit format then overflowed to a four digit format; serial formats for three digit plates would progress from A00 to A09, then A0A and so on, treating the letters like numbers. I, L, M, O, Q, and W were not used in serials.[1] Early plates were dated 1942 with the oval the same color as the serial, rest of plates were dated 43 and the oval was white. Plates were validated to 1945 with horizontal tabs in the same color as large plates.
	1946–49	Embossed white serial on black plate; "EXP WISCONSIN" at top, "46" or "47" at top right	"AMERICA'S DAIRYLAND" at bottom	1 12345 1/0 12345	Coded by month of expiration (1 or 1/0)	Plates were set to expire between June 1946 and May 1947; later plates didn't have a "46" or "47" date designation. Plates were revalidated for 1947 with orange tabs, for 1948 with yellow tabs, for 1949 with green tabs, for 1950 with light blue tabs, for 1951 with white tabs, and for 1952 with golden yellow tabs.
	1950–52	As above, but with square corners and thinner serial dies		1 12345 1 123-456 1/0 12345 1/0 123-456		Validated for 1950, 1951 and 1952 in the same manner as for 1946–49 plates. Serials for each month continued from where these plates left off.

1953 to 1967

In 1956, the United States, Canada, and Mexico came to an agreement with the American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators, the Automobile Manufacturers Association and the National Safety Council that standardized the size for license plates for vehicles (except those for motorcycles) at 6 inches (15 cm) in height by 12 inches (30 cm) in width, with standardized mounting holes.^[3] The 1956 (dated 1957) issue was the first Wisconsin license plate that complied with these standards.
