1976

The book is filled with illustrations of knobs and patents, as well as reproductions of pages from various hardware catalogs. Although much new information has been unearthed and new hardware discovered since the book was published in 1976, "The Antique Doorknob" remains a wonderful introduction to doorknobs.
