Description: Listing for one knob. Genuine Bakelite knob manufactured by National Brass Co. Bakelite was one of the original plastics. First patented in 1909 it wasn't until the mid nineteen twenties that it found its way into everyday use. The exact date of manufacture of these is hard to pinpoint. National Brass (1912 -1955) was one of the early manufacturers of Bakelite doorknobs so most likely these will date from the mid 1920's to early 1930's. Knob has an iron insert in the stem for strength that will require a threaded spindle. It will also require a set screw. There is a small chip at the base which would be hard to notice once installed.Remember that these are old pieces, many coming from homes well over 100 years old so they will NEVER EVER be perfect and will always show some evidence of natural wear. I will happily provide any other additional information that I have and or provide you with additional/better pictures upon request. Always refer to the pictures they are an integral part of the description and best represent the product. T-69
