Mike,

I don't read Hemmings, but I would guess that they are referring to the
License Plate.  In California the plates stay with the car when it is sold.
Back in the 60's the plates had a black background.

My '61 TRR3A has a black plate that was on it when I bought the car.  Does
that mean it's worth more???
