those things were common on "cool" cars in the early fifties.  My
brother had a mercury two door "hard top" with them.  Same crowd that
liked to have a steering knob had them, generally.  Also, and this would
have been a real bummer for aerodynamics, an external sunshade above the
wind screen was popular, especially on Mercury and Ford cars.
