When I was at the big photo trade show in Las Vegas this last February, I spoke with a gentleman who represented the company which has taken over the assets and the production of Seal dry-mount presses. The bad news: for the life of me I cannot recall who it was. Ding a bit of web research, it seems that Bienfang bought out Seal and was subsequently taken over by Hunt Corp. The kinda incongruous part of all this is that the guy I spoke with had a business card with Elmer's glue mentioned on it. Bottom line: Seal is not Seal any longer, and you cold probably get information by contacting Hunt Corporation. If I learn more, I'll pass it along.
