A small, old bumper -'30s to '50s?

Twenty years ago when I got my Studebaker M5 pickup, there was a small bumper mounted on the rear. Since rear bumpers weren't standard on '48 pickups, someone adapted another bumper to the task. The bumper is still here, but needs a new home, if anyone can use it - free plus shipping. 

 

It's 64 inches wide, 4 inches high, and has curved, tapered ends. Rusted but pretty straight. The bracket extensions aren't original, as someone tried to weld them on to the spring steel brackets and learned that spring steel cracks when welded. I don't remember seeing anything like this on a car.  Could it have come on a small European car of the 1940s-50s? 

 

It's yours for the asking.
