    Of course, if you're from Boston, it's reminiscent of the famous Red Sox play with the cop.

    It's not a bookend or book holder is it? I am probably losing it as I type this. LOL

    Maybe they actually are oven rack pullers, like cluttered mentioned?

    I saw them before awhile ago but can not remember what they were used for. I kinda remember something about an oven or stove.......that's all I got,
    But couldn't resist...............

    Had to bump this thread back up, saw this in a yard sale ad this morning. Unfortunately it was a sale in the opposite direction from where I was going so I didn’t see it in person.

    No mention of them, just vintage grill in the list.

    Wonder if the pair of them stand on the grill and you put skewers in the holes between them? Perhaps for veggies or hot dogs that don't need direct heat. Think we just invented Kabob Kids? :joyful:

    Figtree3 What would you do if you weren't afraid?

    Wow, and we still can't tell what they are for sure! I hope that @Bev aka thelmasstuff comes back soon to see this.

    I can't believe this post is still around! But no one seems to know exactly what they do.

    If someone can figure out the logo on that grill, that would be a big help to figuring out with these are for!

    The grill looks like a shish kabob grill. The men could be skewer holders to keep the kabobs properly placed and separated while cooking.
