Antique Norwalk Vernacular Style Doorknob

A quite unique and rare bronze doorknob produced by Norwalk from 1885-1890. The attachment style is based on a patent from 1884 by T. Taylor and includes a screw at the center of the doorknob. The knob was made in both a standard style as well as with the center screw. A similar attachment style was used by Union Doorknob for a few different style knobs.
