How do you remove an old fashioned door knob without external screws?

I've removed average doorknobs before, but I can't figure out the doorknob on our current bedroom door. There are no screws to remove the trim or knobs themselves. I'll attach a picture if I can figure it out.

It's probably been painted over but look around the base of both knobs. There is a sloted screw needs to be backed out. Then unscrew that knob.

On one side or the other there must be a screw that holds the knob onto the handle shaft.
