Re: couple of questions...
Connie:
There's a terrific retail catalog outfit that specializes in reproduction
items such as you describe. I believe (but am not certain at the moment)
that the business is called The Cumberland Store or the Cumberland General
Store. Try a web search with those words.
My former employer, California State Railroad Museum has wholesale-purchased
replica hardware items and vintage household hardware for exhibit and resale
within its Huntington-Hopkins Hardware Store here in Old Sacramento State
Historic Park.
Good luck!
