    Are you sure the hooks are not on the front?

    wow , that reddit bot...... too much of a bitch for my taste....

    .
    • All identification requests must include at least an approximate location, e.g. “East Tennessee” or “Southern UK”.

    • Pictures must be focused on the object and should show at least front and back of the object clearly. (you can add additional pictures in the comments)

    • All identification suggestions made on this post should be serious and include evidence if possible. Do not post wild guesses.


      match box holder seems plausible , but that's a lot of metal and screws just for that !
