Trying to match some early 1960s Schlage interior locksets. IIRC, 'medalist'
was the model series, but I could be imagining that. Need 5 or six privacy
latches and 2 or 3 passage latches, in bright brass. This style was around
at least untill 1966 or so, and also available in chrome and brush aluminum.
The house is in another city, so I can't post a picture anywhere. Knob is
shaped like a tapered cylinder, with a cupped face, and a pronouced bevel on
the room side of the cylinder. Google was no help on an image.

Anybody out there know of a source for NOS from a forgotten warehouse
somewhere?

(Yeah, I know, knobs are cheap, and I should probably just switch them all
out. But I like the style.)

Ebay. There are also ebay imitators. Do any of them have any
substantial traffic?
