Working on my Spare Tire Carrier for my 1929

Wondering what the 2 holes in the top of the Carrier are for ??
labeled in Pict as Hole 1 and Hole 2

Noticed they were in my original carrier, the spare carrier i have on hand has the same holes in same location, but saw one the had Hole 2 in same spot, but hole 1 was on the left left near where the Arm Connects ?

well spent some time going through hundreds of 1929 photos, and seems that many mount the tire to that the joint in the rim is at 12 o'clock this would locate the valve stem at the location to use Hole 2 as a pass through. makes sense, especially is you are using those larger metal style stems.

also seen a few where they mount the joint at 7 oclock
