I recently posted on here looking for help identifying doorknobs, and people were so helpful I figured I would try and see if anyone can identify this tile! Our home was built in 1935/1936, so not quite century. We have no idea when these tiles were added around the upstairs fire place but they are very unique and whimsical. Does anyone have thoughts as to where/when they are from or what they are depicting exactly?

We have this minneapolis honeywell chronotherm thermostat in our house, built in 1936. It is purely decorative at this point but wondering if the clock can be repaired and made functional. Has anyone seen or tried anything like this before? If possible, any recommendations for repairs? We are located in northeast Ohio.

Can anyone help me find this door knob? We have multiple in our home (1936, not quite century yet…) but a few have been replaced over time and do not even resemble the originals or fit the vibe of the house. I would love to find something similar, as I know that finding the identical doorknob is a long shot. Best ChatGPT could tell me is Victorian era, brass or bronze, late 19th to early 20th century. Thanks!
