Where can I find a fancy sideplate for Chambers "Dale Johnson" lock?

Where can I find a fancy sideplate for Chambers "Dale Johnson" lock? That will fit the existing sideplate and use the same bolt holes?

Hi Bill,  If you can't find what you want - make it out of a piece 1/8" brass plate.  I have done it lots! I have some brass if you need some.
