Not sure what this is. Thinking it may be some type of adjustment tool. The Webster - Chicago Corp. was in buisness from the 1940's through mid 1950's. They produced recording equipment. Wire recorders, tape recorders etc.

I'm not sure what it is, but it reminds me of a four-sided pocket screwdriver.

Thats what I thought when I dug it up. But the four ears are doubled. They are very thin. No way it could be used as a screw driver. If you will look real close to the left and right ears in the first picture you will see one smaller tab on top of a larger tab.

It also kinda looks like the thing you had to use to play a 45 on a record player.
Is it about 1/2 dollar size? If not then I :dontknow:.
