Did a despero search by typing “ceiling tin” in the search box, no matches found. I know I have seen a discussion here not too long ago. Can anyone point me in the right direction, here or elsewhere?
Do it right, or do it twice.

Little of both. Not necessarily detailed instructions, probably just pointers & tips. And a decent mail order supplier.Do it right, or do it twice.
I'm about 90% sure outwater plastics sells it: http://www.outwater.com/
They have a catalog with a bunch of neat stuff, but I've never ordered from them.Matt
Try http://www.vandykes.com I`ve ordered from them on several occasions...always positive experiences.J. D. Reynolds

Real simple.
Google a search = tin ceilings.
Lots of stuff should appear right before you. <G>
(The order of the search words can drastically alter results)
I have a 3 page fold out from one of my suppliers from Chlsea tin ceilings.
Can't tell you how long I,ve had the info and I'm in north Jersey.
For what its worth the supplier is Dashco Inc,East Rutherford nj

Thanks to all. I'll check all the referenced sites.Do it right, or do it twice.
try http://www.abbingdon.com/ for info and installation instructions. I have used them in the past. They use the original stamping dies from the old days,and ship anywhere.
They are located in Brooklyn, where I grew up, just a block away from my great uncle's old furniture company.
Hope this helps. Rich.
