Rear Bumper Question

My 1950 F-1 has two bumper brackets holding the rear bumper, but Dennis Carpenter's catalogue shows two pair of brackets for the rear bumper. Can someone tell me, or better yet post a picture or two, of what the original rear bumper brackets look like?

This link says 53-56, but they should be the same, or at least similar enough, to the 48-52 part for you to see what you need.
