What's so special about the seal that you can't get it any more? Does it have a number? Can you measure it's size? Brown Bearing in Spokane would surely have something that would fit.

If not, one of the nice things about old machines is you can usually make most parts if you need to. I'm not sure what this seal is sealing, but assuming it's sealing a shaft (otherwise you would have called it a gasket), you could probably make a new one out of leather or felt, and it would last another 40 years.
