Went to a park in the town I grew up in, It has at least been there since I was a kid. (30-40 years)
Found this, it is really corroded, I wasn't sure if I should try to clean it to much.
It is 61mm wide, and 110mm long, and approx. 4 mm thick. It looks like it is broken on two sides.
It might have been bigger at some point.
It looks like an add piece for a Rockwood Range Wood Burning Stove.
The interesting thing is, all the type is backwards, like it might have been a press plate for printing or stamping.
I tried to research it, and all I found was a Advertisiing document on Ebay. Looks like it dates to the '50's.

Looks like it may have fit on something like this.

If any of you can give me any other info on it, I would really appreciate it.
Thanks for looking, HH
