Abstract

A license plate frame assembly is disclosed for displaying and projecting a vehicle license plate or identification tag. The assembly includes a generally rectangular frame with a rearwardly extending wall portion and an open center portion. A transparent plate abuts the frame and is confined within the wall portion to cover the open center. A rear panel, also confined within the wall portion, sandwiches the license plate between the transparent plate and the rear panel. The frame is secured from the rear portion thereof, fasteners being extended through a generally planar surface thereof, thereby preventing its unauthorized removal.
