That style of door is a utility (i.e. cheap) design and it would have had
utility door handles. As others have said, brown bakelite round handlees
with round escutcheons behind them are the most probable. I would use a

being too accurate about the period.

Redwood. Clear of kNots they look good stripped and varnished. I'd
then put on Art Deco style (1920's 30's) handles eg:
