Looking for parlor double doors

Be sure to take accurate measurements. I spent that last 3 years tracking down original doors for my parlor and found no two that were alike. Eddie’s is a very good starting point.

I’m looking for a set of original parlor double doors (hinged, not pocket) in the arched style like those in the photo here.  Dont yet have exact dimensions, but pretty sure these are the standard Sears-issue items of their day.  Before I go check with the usual haunts (Eddie’s, Build It Green, etc), I figured I’d ask here in case anyone happened to be getting rid of these around now…

How soon will you need them? We’re closing in a couple of weeks (am I jumping the gun?), but we won’t be able to remove that wall and the doors until August when upstairs tenants move out. If you’re not in a rush, I’ll be glad to send pix and dimensions as soon as we’re in.

Thanks, Amy.  Early August might just work, but will just wish you a smooth, bump-free closing for now.  This arched doorframe is 60.5″ across the inside and is 104″ at its peak.
