Intact frames are impossible to find, old white metal cracks and disintegrates. the rh side is a duplicate of the intact lh side.

At the bottom on the lh side there is a small hole which is for an attaching rivet, was one on rh side also. They are for a photo-etched nameplate which was in one of several stylized Packard block letter or script. There may have been some other artwork in there but I do not recall.

You may want to try scanning and using a 3D printer to duplicate the other side if you plan on making molds for re-casting. Just an idea.
