I'm helping with research for an upcoming museum exhibit focused on mid-century design. In 1958 the industrial design firm Peter Muller-Munk Associates designed hardware for Attwood Brass Company's Seaflite line (as seen here:
http://www.fiberglassics.com/library/Attwood). We're searching for materials to help supplement this part of the story, with an interest in Glastron's Seaflite line. While we haven't concluded what the relationship was between the two companies (it seems like the name was mostly coincidental), we're trying to find out more and hoping to track down original sources or high resolution scans of the Glastron brochures as a possible graphic feature for use in the exhibit. Boating magazines are not well preserved in libraries but forums like yours are proving to be a great resource for information. If it's not too much trouble we would greatly appreciate if you could put us in touch with members who might know more about the 58/59 Glastrons or you can send my forum post their way. I've also posted here

Thanks!
