does anyone know of anyplace that makes a up-to-date version of these old switches? i yahoo'ed for "snap rotary switch" and came up just about empty handed. i would think they would make something like this for the serious restorer
I'm sure they are still made.
I got 6690 hits with a modified search phrase at google, only 1 with your phrase:

If you send me a pic. of the switch, I might be able to get you some NOS ( believe it or not ) switches . Just remember that back in those days,there was no such organization ( UL approved) . Email me a pic, Iowa883
Are the ones you are seeking the surface mounted kind with a white ceramic body and a black rotary knob with small "wings" on it to give a better finger grip?

Like I said, I don't know of any repops but can get you NOS ones. Thanks, Iowa883
Hey, did 'ya try eBay? Searching for "switch antique" got this:
You get the idea. When I was going through the insanity of retrofitting antique brass doorknobs on every lockset in our home I haunted eBay for about 6 months to get enough of them. (Hope SWMBO never finds out what the whole project cost. )
