Go here: http://www.houseofantiquehardware.com/set-screws
you’ll find the 1/4-20 and 5/16-24 door set screws.
OR GO HERE FOR ALL IN ONE SHOPPING (but not typically oval head slotted): http://www.blacksmithbolt.com/store/c/37-Setscrews.aspx
you’ll find the 1/4-20, 1/4-28 and 5/16-24 PLUS others including 1/4-32, 5/16x18 and 7/16x14 door set screws.
Hope this helps.

We have an architectural recovery company nearby. Check out www.discoveries.net. If anyone has the screws, they will.
Peace,

I have a number of door knobs that need set screws to hold them to
their spindles. (Square threaded spindles in mortise locksets.) The
normal size of these is 1/4-20 or rarely 5/16-24 or even more rarely
1/4-28. The existing screws are 28 tpi, with a major diameter of
0.280. That's no screw thread I know of, but I have a house full of
them (identical glass door knobs, presumably original to the house,
circa 1925.) so it must be something.
