Found these while going through my fathers tools. Old brass park passes from 1936 and 1939. To be wired onto your grille (or considering the year, maybe to be wired onto your buffalo LOL.)

'64 Parisienne CS "barn find" - last on the road in '86 ... Owner Protection Plan booklet, original paint, original near-mint aqua interior, original aqua GM floor mats, original 283, factory posi, and original rust.
I've seen some of those somehwere before. Can't remember where. Maybe it was at the auction after my grandfather went into the home - have no idea what they'd be worth, but they'd be great to hang on your wall.
Now that's gonna bug me until I can remember where I've seen them before.
Good old ebay. This auction is finished but the description gives a little bit more info:
"CANADA'S NATIONAL PARKS 1940 BUFFALO VISITOR PASS PLATE. In 1940, you attached this to your car licence plate to show you had paid the annual fee. Solid copper, beautiful unused condition, just a few tiny spots of that green stuff copper gets with age. It is 4" wide by 4" tall. Marked "Winnipeg Brass, Winnipeg" on the reverse. "
