That's a very neat old face plate. Philco.. Any idea which product it was off of?
 

That's really cool are you going to try and bend back into shape? Anyway cool find!
 

Philco used to make TV's also but that is probable off a radio like Creskol said. Nice finds!

Thanks Detroit! I am not sure if I want to try bending it too much, the site was a hotel that burned down.
altho I am not sure of these items age.

The Philco plate is 1929 vintage.
