   I found some cracked ice and other patterns. And edging

   A google on -retro 50's laminate- got lots of good hits.

   A-holes. Hey every group has to have one. And I have been elected to be the one. I should make that my tagline.

   I believe one of the laminate producers is bringing that back in stock. I saw it in a trade or ho magazine recently. Formica reintroduced the boomerang some years back, so it may be that they'll have the gold dust as a special order.

   Try some of the other players if you already haven't: Wilsonart, Pionite, Nevamar, Laminart and one other Italian mfr I can't remember...starts with an A, I think. They got some really funky stuff!

   Good luck!
