Is the name Meguire or Maguire. Below is an ad from 1965 for this dealership.

I don't think every dealer did. It seemed more common in the states and some of the larger volume dealers in Canada. I think I have only seen a couple of plate frames come from any of the 3 prairie provinces. I would love to find one from one of the Saskatoon dealers from back in the day (or any SK dealer for that matter) but have yet to even see one.
