There are places that rebuild old appliance timers. A 1997 Popular
Mechanics article at
http://popularmechanics.com/home_improvement/home_owner_clinic/1997/8/clinic_897/print.phtml
mentions http://www.m-t-s.com/ , Professional Appliance Parts of
Lakewood, CO, Reeco Timer of Palm Bay, FL, and T & E Timer of
Madison Heights, MI. Google suggests
http://www.antiquegasstoves.com/pages/rebuild.html as another source.
How about a local place that sells used appliances? You might also try
a big appliance parts distributor, like Marcone in Overland Park. If
they don't have it they might be able to point you at a local source.

Standard disclaimers apply; I don't get money from any of the companies
mentioned.
