Kodak Stereo problem

My Kodak Stereo camera has had an annoying problem ever since I've had it:  The rewind 
knob and film advance knob were very loose, and I was never quite brave enough to 
tighten them, since the screws themselves seemed to not want to move.  Well, with the 
proper tools, I finally summoned the courage to tighten the screws.  The winding knob 
was not a problem- screw tightened/problem solved.  The REWIND knob, however, is now 
unattached, since I broke off the little screw holding it on!  I was able to remove the 
remaining part of the broken screw with a little patience, a spot of liquid wrench and a 
small vise grip, but now I have the problem of trying to replace an odd sized screw from 
a 40 year old camera.

If ANYONE has an suggestion as to where I might locate a replacement screw, I would be 
eternally grateful!  I realize that finding one will be next to impossible, but I 
thought I'd give it a shot here, since there are so many knowledgable people reading 
this.  I will try all the local small hardware sources here locally, but since this is 
such an odd sized screw, I have not yet found a suitable replacement.

Thank you for your help.
