Following our move I have finally got round to painting the original
1940s doors in the upstairs of the house.

Originally, these would have had brown bakelite handles, either lever
or round. (How do I know? My parents house which was completed in
1939/1940 had almost identical doors.)

I doubt you'll find any lever ones as they tended to snap. However,
the round ones should be available from a salvage yard.
Alternatively,
I have seen white plastic ones in an almost identical size/shape.
