I m pretty sure it is a weiser Troy (an earlier version). If anyone knows of a place to get some more I would love to hear from them. Thanks!

Sometimes the brass is on the chrome part of the knob in the picture example. Most are in OK condition but have some pitting on them and the finish is just plain rubbed off in some places. I have no idea who made these. Do you? I'm pretty sure they are original to my 1964 ranch--I'm only the third owner of the home. I’ve got door knobs like this in my house:

My 1956 ranch has all the original knobs, which lock on the inside by pushing in the knob and turning it clockwise. Are these types of knobs still made? I don't even know what to ask for!
