Although this is a licence issued in 1930, the design and layout is the same as the first one's issued in 1925. Note the absence of any expiry date and the one-time fee of $1 listed on the front cover ... ah, the good old days! |

1932 Application for a Driver's Licence Renewal |
Below is an example of an application for a Driver's Licence used by the province in the 1930s. For an extra $0.15 to cover the cost of postage, driver's renewing their licence in 1932 could have their 1932 license plates mailed in the same package. |
