Notice that the ears are turned 45 degrees. Thanks for looking and hopefully identifying.

It looks like the choke and throttle are cable operated so I would say it is for a piece of stationary equipment like maybe a welding machine.

The lever attached to the throttle shaft lifts a needle to provide fuel enrichment ( a sort of power valve). This means to me that it is probably a late '30s carburetor. I think that I have one similar to it somewhere in my basement.
