<P> Passenger plates have always been issued in pairs with the exception of 1944 -- 46 , when only rear plates were issued due to metal conservation for World War II . Like many other states , Ohio issued single - year plates until the 1970s , except in 1943 and 1952 when windshield stickers were issued to revalidate the previous year 's plates ( due to metal conservation for World War II and the Korean War respectively ) . In 1953 , the Bureau of Motor Vehicles commemorated the state 's sesquicentennial by issuing a special front plate bearing the state shape and the word `` sesqui - centennial '' ( sic ) instead of the passenger serial , which was carried only on the rear plate . The 1973 plate was the last single - year plate ; the 1974 plate was revalidated for 1975 with a sticker placed at the bottom right corner . The first undated , multi-year plate was issued in 1976 , while staggered registration was introduced in 1979 . </P>
