A number plate with luminous characters includes a front plate 4 having a plurality of character portions 3 punched therefrom, a plurality of characters 31 each molded of a transparent or translucent synthetic resin and adhesively fitted into the character portions 3, a plurality of light emitting diode assemblies 8 arranged on the rear surface side of the front plate 4 at positions corresponding to the character portions, a cover 9 secured to the rear surface of the front plate and having the light emitting diode assemblies accommodated therein, and a plurality of base boards P1 to P5 having the light emitting diode assemblies arranged at the positions located corresponding to the character portions. In addition, the cover includes a support member (15, Fig. 2) for supporting the base boards which are connected to each other in the side-by-side relationship. Each of the base boards includes a printed conductor (12) which is electrically connected to an anode terminal or a ground terminal via the light emitting diode assemblies. The interior of the cover is filled with a transparent synthetic resin. <IMAGE>
