Mirror # 09A 17690

[Bazooka Joe]

I am looking to identify this mirror. The number on the bracket reads 09A 17690. It say on the mirror frame, Guide Glare-Proof, and swivels to a Day, Night position.

Thank You

Joe

The 09A prefix is from a 1940 Mercury passenger car. The 17690 says it is a mirror bracket. My guess is that the mirror itself is newer (fifties?) but I don't know that much about what was used in that car.

Thank You, yes I looked at what looked like all stock 40 Mercury cars, prior to posting this one doesn’t look anything like what they used.
