Hi Mark, good hearing from you.
I have found out that this product is being distributed by Rumpf but is
actually John Roemer's Arizona Simi Seal dubbing, Canadian brown.  It is a
mixture of mohair and Antron.  Unfortunately, it also appears to be
unavailable online.  Found one site that had other colors, but not the
Canadian Brown.  At least I know it is still being produced, so somebody
should be able to order it for me.
I am going to try to use my Canadian Brown mohair color formula to mix my
own Antron Canadian Brown.  Trick will be to find appropriate colors,
particularly the bronze brown color and the soft light yellow.  The other
colors (claret, kelly green, black) are easy to find.
In another related note, Hareline Dubbing is now marketing packages of
Antron dubbing.  If you want to mix a subtle but very effective flash
material into your dubbing, this is the best stuff IMHO.
