What keeps them from falling out? a bracket or frame in the tire? maybe attached with magnets? How to mount them on a wall? you know to cover up the bad spots.... here is the pics, ok so I didn't clean them yet...jeez I've only had them for 25 years or more sleep

Seems like I've seen round aluminum holders for those with 4 tabs for holding a sign like that in the tire opening.

Were they part of the tire stand? did they hold both? or were they one sided?? drawing a blank on how they fit.

Here are a couple photos from ebay, with the type of inserts I am most familiar with... Inserts, where the tabs are part of the insert:

Bob, That is what I looked for, but no signs of tabs, so that is the reason question.

A lot of them were made to fit inside the tire, for display/sales purpose.

Terry, they would not fit the bead very well, not really any marks to say here is where the clamps held it in. strange!
