What body style?The trunk model 2 and 4 doors used a very short mounting stand.The trunk-less 2 and 4 door and coupes a longer stand.The lamp its self is rather easy to find.The mounting stands very scarce.

The right lamp its self fits all body styles.I believe that the 1935 and 1936 lamps are the same.1933-34 looks the same but the method of attaching lamp to stand is different.A left lamp would fit but it has the license plate lamp window, which could be covered.(filled).

I believe the 35 Master trunk models had the tail light housing mounted directly to the trunk lid as that is the only way I have ever seen them. The 36 Master trunk models had tail light stands attached to the fenders.

The trunk models have a very short bracket between the trunk lid and the lamp housing.The left bracket has the license bracket built into it.The right is "smooth"....I have some of each  Also the Standard tail lamp (body ) will fit the Master bracket (stand).

I bought a standard light from the filling station and it's not even close, the one I need mounts to the stand with one screw up thru a hole in the bottom of the stand

the trunk models tail light are differant from the other 35 models as it has a red lens in the bottom of the light very hard to come by . 35 and 36 tail lights are not the same from the factory . they will bolt up and fit but the license plate light is not the same . the right light is the same for all models of 35 master cars

Bob, Sorry that I miss directed you on the Standard tail lamp.I forgot they still used the 1933-34 style of mounting.
I am sure you won't worry about not having the small red lower light under the lamp.It was only there as a signal when the lid was open and the lights were on....and you presently have the left one so equipped (if original).
I still say that your best bet would be to find a 1935-36 left lamp and fill or cover over the license lamp window.
