stanley 55 -almost complete

>I bought a stanley 55 and it is functional and complete except for the thumbscrew for the slitter. I have a threaded piece that fits but it only functional and ugly.
Anyone know where I can get one?
I'm not certain of the tear/type. There is a B on the casting...no sweetheart logo just the fancy stanley rule & level co, new britain, conn, USA. This is located just below the slitter.

I'm sure there are others out there, but I've dealt with Pete a number of times. (He ain't cheap.)
HTH,

Is it the same screw as a No. 45's?
