24 volt lighting switch covers

I just bought a house built in 1957 that has 24 volt lighting controls. The wall switches have rocker / push buttons that switch relays in a control panel to turn on / off the 120 volt overhead lights. Local electrical contractors tell me the system is obsolete and I cannot find parts.

Right now I need several cover plates for the rocker switches. There are single, double, triple and four gang switches. The rocker openings are 11/16” wide by 1 3/32” high. The mounting holes are 3 13/16” apart. The covers have “General Electric” molded into the reverse side, but no part numbers.

Can you help me locate a source for these covers?
