A total of 3,598 cars were registered with a B number, i.e., Østfold license plates, in 1930. Now you can search for cars and owners here on Slekt1.
Four years earlier, the number of cars was nearly 35 percent lower, and five years later, in 1935, the number was nearly 40% higher. Although only a limited number of people owned cars, the number of car owners increased quite rapidly in the pre-war period.
