I don't know if you are shoping for another one or just looking for a manufacturer still doing this but here is a used one in good condition for sale. At $195.00 they appear to be pretty proud of it though.

Edit: Cool design - never seen it before. Hope someone comes along who knows of a manufacturer still doing something like this.

I've been looking for one of those for years at estate sales. Never found one, but I'll keep looking. Surprised no-one makes one new. I have seen a few on Ebay...
