Its common and the book you are probably referring to is Allan Colvin's "Chevrolet by the Numbers - 1965-69".
Some of that info came from the now defunct US Camaro Club and is real old info about the 388 block. They are actually very common.

My bad, 3928282 shows up as a 68 Passenger car, saddle brown with chrome trim. This is one number off your number of 3928281. My GM parts book is from 1977 and most of those colored knobs were already discontinued at that time.

My book says 3973042 - All models with column shift, knob, control lever (black) paint as required.

One other thing, I bet you will only find them in black NOS.

My book shows them as:

Group 4.006 Knob, Transmission Control Lever - 67-69 Camaro Standard Trans column shift - Black 3973042

Supercedes:
3899062
3899063
3899064
3899066
3899067
3928387
3928388

The above must have been the different colors.

Impala or fullsized had the chrome trim which can probably be removed.

Steve's number above (3988281) looks like a Passenger car. 3988282 is a dark saddle with chrome knob.

I bet those are the same as Impala, which would be the easiest way of finding a used one.

Career
The band was formed by guitarists and lead singers Don Dannemann and Tom Dawes (bass guitar), who met while studying at Lafayette College in Easton, Pennsylvania. The other members were Earl Pickens on keyboards and Marty Fried on drums. They were originally a "frat rock" band called The Rhondells, but were later discovered and managed by Brian Epstein, who was better known as manager of The Beatles. Epstein's partner was New York attorney Nathan Weiss. Weiss heard the band in Atlantic City, New Jersey on Labor Day in 1965. He became their manager and renamed them.[1] John Lennon provided the unique spelling of their new name. They were produced by John Simon.

In the summer of 1966, they opened on fourteen dates for the Beatles during their U.S. tour. On August 28 they headed the opening acts performing prior to The Beatles at Dodger Stadium. The remaining artists who appeared were Bobby Hebb, The Ronettes, and The Remains.[2] Before touring with The Beatles, The Cyrkle had a successful engagement at the Downtown Discotheque in New York City.[3]

The Cyrkle is best known for their 1966 song "Red Rubber Ball", which went to #2 in the Billboard Hot 100 chart. It was co-written by Paul Simon of Simon and Garfunkel and Bruce Woodley of The Seekers. It was released on the Columbia record label. The band had one more Top 20 hit, "Turn-Down Day" later in 1966. After the release of the debut album, Red Rubber Ball, they recorded a second album, Neon, in late 1966, and a movie soundtrack, The Minx, in 1967. They followed that with various singles, then disbanded in late 1967.

Both Dawes and Danneman became professional jingle writers following the demise of The Cyrkle. Dawes later wrote the famous "plop plop fizz fizz" jingle for Alka-Seltzer. Danneman wrote jingles for Continental Airlines and Swanson Foods. He penned the original 7-Up Uncola song.[4] In 1977 Dawes produced for Foghat.[5]

And many cars had valve cover gaskets replaced and the cover put back on on the wrong sides.
DAL777 has it right.
