I actually found this when we cleaned out my grandfathers house after he passed away. It was wrapped in an old wool Army blanket on a shelf in a store room.
So I've been looking into it a little. From the serial #, it seems to be a military prop from WWII from a PT-19/26. Grandfather was an army solider in Italy during the entire deployment in WWII. He did tell stories of "horse trading" as he was somehow related to the Quartermaster corps or something.
Can anyone tell me much more about this? Is it worth hanging on to? It appears to have never been installed and has cosmetic dents and dings from the 70-odd years of sitting around.
Thanks!
