Slow night...but I can handle it

[PlzBSeated]

Now I've found my share of door knobs, but never have I found a door handle this large! Been a while since I've opened a door that had such a handle with a thumb latch. Looks to be a Welch 518 A. Pretty sure it's antique. I'm sure someone out there would love to have it for an old restoration project.

I think we once had a very old wardrobe with a handle style like that. You gotta love the old stuff. It still worked fine and was quite a few decades old.
