You know, I was at this hole in the wall antique store and saw a stack of large square brass escutcheons, about 10 or so. I didnt ask about them but I have been thinking about them all the time. And I know they are still there. And when I first saw em, I thought about everyone here on retrorenovation. I might very well see if i can afford them and then pass on the savings to you! SPECTACULAR!!!!!

If they would have been snakes they would have bitten me! I just noticed it yesterday, but on the door leading from the garage to the kitchen, both sides have shiny brass back plates.

And thank you for your comment. I have to admit, I was proud of this one! J.D., not to belabor this discussion, but where I live I can't imagine getting anything done for $30. If you have great contacts, though, go for it. Tikimama, see the link that Gretchen provides, above. And thank you for your comment. I have to admit, I was proud of this one!
