Still Need Early RCA Knobs

I posted last year about the same thing. Still have no knobs. The pictures are just to give an idea of the era of the set. The thing is RCA used these knobs for a number of years and on many models. Mine is the 8T-243.I know where a whole floor model of similar vintage is for $50, but I would want to fix that up if I had room for it. I have had thoughts of using both sets to hopefully come up with one good one but I have decided that I can't sacrifice sets like I used to be able to. Really it would be stupid today unless one was a basket case. I can remember parting out a bunch of 50's sets back in the 80's and busting up the cabinets for firewood. I had a fasination with old sets back then but they had NO value at the time. When I needed to make some space I would have to bust one up. Usually nothing too special but I did hate getting rid of a 56 Sylvania "Halo-Light" like that.

Anyhow, thanks in advance for any help with the knobs!
