What's this ornament for?????

I KNOW that somebody here can tell me what year, make, and model this ornament fits. I "think" late forties, early fifties GM, but would like to pinpoint it if possible. Thanks in advance. Stu

 

What is the part number?

 

Looks like a fender ornament... because of the hole/site on the end?

My 59 olds has some very similar to them, fender rockets I guess.

 

Don't know if it's a part number or just a casting number. 572272 ?? Thanks

 

Looks like one of those fender mounted turn indicators so the driver could also see it blink ,as used on some Chryslers,Pontiacs and others? Just a WAG.

Could be, however, it has a pretty good curve in the mounting face,....which might not fit a fender because of the contour?? Thanks

 

No real hole for a lamp. Thanks

 

I think it's 1958 Oldsmobile 88.

No wonder it looked so similar to my 59 olds fender rockets!!
