That is either a German Aeolina reed plate or a concertina reed plate ..

Look at the instrument in the upper left corner.

Yeah pretty sure that's it. I found that exact page after your help in identifying thanks again. After seeing the chain length(although extremely blurry) do you still think tractor chain? If so or not any idea on date range.

The chain in the first and second photos I think is a tire chain, but the othe one I am not sure about. It has some interesting links. What size are they? They look pretty substantial.

 

[Hosensack]

They are all the same chain the first picture label main links spans about 4-1/2 feet of the chain and then there is a transition to the second thicker type of chain for the other 18", but it is all a straight run of 6 feet. The links are average size 1-1/4" the main links definitely look hand formed

here is another shot of the full chain hopefully not blurry this time
