Does anyone out there have a 1937-1940 Cad/Las with original door lock knobs? I want to know what is correct. Steele Rubber has 2 reproduction options. Bob's has 1. Which one is correct?

Series 52,62, and 60s are different from above.

I widened my range of cars that have what I am looking for. Even '41 cars with cloth interiors used the same door lock button as above.

The knobs in my 1940 LaSalle 5019 match the ones listed by STEELE RUBBER number

Here are a couple of photos of what came on my 39. I don't know if they are original or not, but they are of potmetal? with a chrome or nickel plating. I've long suspected mine are not original to the car, but I would be eager to learn if anyone knows the answer to what is correct.
