The ID plate was installed on each and every motor ever built, so if they’re missing, its because they’ve been purposely removed for whatever reason.
WRT the background colour, the earlier Elto’s had a black background. Later it was changed to a blue background, I think in 1924.
Hope this helps,

You should be able to see the holes from the fasteners where the tag was attached.
A "Boathouse Repair" is one thats done without having tools or the skills to do it properly.

I believe you will not find any holes, as the plates were soldered on. Apparently some plates not too securely soldered ,thus the missing ID plates.

I haven’t had a lot of these but the ones I’m familiar with did have fasteners holding them on. A couple have fallen out on this one.
