In 1936, the province would again create a separate registration for Commercial Trucks through the introduction of the "C" prefix, which would appear continuously through to 1971.

Of interest, although the province had used issued six-digit passenger plates between 1930 and 1935 as way to extend that series beyond the 99,999 mark, the decision was made to retain the five-digit format for the Commercial series and use additional letters to extend the "C" prefix beyond the 9,999 mark.  As a result, in the very first year of issue approximately thirteen (13) different letter combinations appear on the "C" plates - a number which would only increase as the number of trucks continued to grow throughout the coming decade.

National Parks and Red Border License Plates
For years it has been known that there exist Alberta licence plates from the 1930s which had been painted with red borders and that this was done in order to identify local residents and workers who resided around the various National Parks of western Albert - such as Banff, Yoho or Kootenay - so that they could freely enter and leave the Parks. As can be seen, an interesting facet of the Alberta plates is that they all start at the 30,000 mark.
These plates are common on the passenger base plate for throughout the 1930s, however, there are also known examples for the Commercial base, such as the 1936 shown below. To read more about these plates, visit our page on the 1924-35 Passenger base.
