Dandy Dave Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 (edited) I think it is used on some early rims to release a particular latch system. Think Rims that need a tire spreader. 19-Teens and twenties. A little searching and look here...

Many autos of the brass era had these. Looks like yours has a lever missing. Dandy Dave!
