Bob Burgess, who usually knows all the answers, is mystified by this tool he recently acquired. It is some form of expanding rod with three prongs at one end and a half round rod with raised grips at the other end. Too long for a shoe or hat stretcher so what was it for?

John O'Mahony suggests this may be a brake pedal depresser similar to the one below.
