In some ways it resembles a hood ornament from a car. Of course, one
might expect a little more symmetry at the top for that.

24. The owner's description: It opens and closes and it has an attached
brass square that flips down.It has two brass squares that are not
attached.It is marked Made in Germany so it predates WWII.only about
1/8" thick.The one square that is permanently attached folds down in
either direction to "prop it up", I don't know if that is it's primary
function though.It has 2 brass squares not attached, A SOLID RECTANGLE
AND A "FRAME TYPE RECTANGLE
brass plate dimensions -The larger two are exactly 36mm x 25mm.The one
that is connected is 28mm x 21mm.
