This was in a dashboard parts lot I purchased. Never seen one, before.

Looks like a 1938 radio delete plate.

Thanks. That was what I suspected. But I couldn't find any images anywhere online.
It was covered in brushed-on paint, but it cleaned up nice with some 0000 steel wool.

There were at least 3 styles of those for 38 Fords.
I have 3 that have different mounting tabs at the back.
