The Wolf License, believe created by Benjamin Franklin Falter, Jr. These licenses originally cost about 15 cents apiece and were made of a wartime fiber. These licenses were divided into various categories, such as “Male,” “Female’ “Armed Forces,” “4-F,” and “Over-Age”. These tags were a fad used by mostly Armed forces personnel and also civilians in bars and pubs and other events, as a license to do what was a “Wolf Whistle”.
