    Found these at a motorcycle meet this week. These are made plated brass or bronze and 15 1/2 tall. There are part numbers on the backs , but have not provided me with their vehicle make. The numbers are 669555-2 and 669556-1. Are these possibly off of a fire truck?

      punch up the pat,,# and see what shows up........

      I don't think it is a patent number as it has -1 and -2 suffixes. Those numbers would put in the 1901 era.

      Pat # should give maker.. then trace who would of bought them or sold to ...

      Those numbers looked up as patent numbers minus the suffixes come up as electrical pliers and a mat cutter. I believe they are part numbers as in left and right.

      Solved my own mystery, these headlamp doors/bezels are from a 1937 Chrysler Airflow!

      It always pays to be tenacious about something :)
