Been at the antique bike game for a long while and could use some help on my 1897 Sterling Tandem project. handlebars and period chain are needed. i have a fair amount of good stuff to trade. Anyone out ther in the know?
From the 1898 Sterling catalog. You can get block chain from Mike Cates in California. I would imagine the '97 tandem handlebars are the same as the '98 models.

Rexnord Industries makes 1" pitch block chain in several widths. They do not sell direct but the chain (by the foot) and links can purchased through Applied Industrial Technologies (they have 450 service centers in North America). 2018 prices were $18.60/foot for B-502 (3/16" width) block chain and $23.69/foot for B-503 (1/4” width) block chain. Links are around $4.00 each.
This is the new 3/16" block chain on my 1897 Tribune Special Racer:
