Hinges

I am restoring an entrance door in Bed-Stuy the hinges on the exterior door art 5 x 2 3/4″. I need to replace a cracked one but would do them all if I could find good hinges.I can not find the correct size anywhere. Anyone have a lead?

we go through this a lot. first off they cracked as they are iron. so we only use brass. what i do is take modern ones and cut them. i may have 5″ hinges here.

i am not sure anyone makes those anymore. they would have been an odd size back in the day.
