my house was built in the 1920s and it still has a lot of the original details, including all of the glass doorknobs. are these valuable at all if i sold them on ebay or something? i love them but my husband hates them because they're stripped inside and could fall off at any second. he's afraid he'll get locked in the bathroom when i'm not home, LOL!

Yes, just look at ebay for ones already on there. You can also check "completed listings" to see how much they've sold for. Also try selling them to local antique stores.

It depends on the materials used, the quality of the workmanship, the type of imprinting, if any, on the knob, the state of preservation, etc. That said, here are some links valuing various early 20th century doorknobs. For the most part, it appears that the average value of 1920s and 1930s doorknobs range in the $20 to $45 category.
