Have you tried any of the folk listed in the resources section?   

I've bought from David, Julie, Mark and Mike in the past.  David, Julie and Mike all have original knobs.
Cheers,
Bob

Failing that you may be able to find close facsimiles through the Lee Valley hardware catalog, they literally have thousands of bits and pieces of cabinet hardware available.

Thanks. I'll give them a shot if I can't find anything in resources.
