Source for antique needle sizes?

Does anyone have a source for antique needles, or their modern equivalents? Specifically, I'm on the hunt for Boye #4, which are flat shanked and 45mm long. It's for an Electric New Companion, which is a badged New Home High Arm New Companion, if that helps.

I have purchased these, various sizes from esty and ebay just for the collecting of the wooden tubes.
