I see them on bows on the big auction site once in a while. You may find them at flea markets too.

By the way, they were absolutely horrible to use. They slowed down the limbs and when it rained let off a shower of water you could take a bath in. Sounded kind of thumpy too.

You are right about getting wet.  Also they love sticktights.  **** would be a good place to find a set.  Also, at some of the larger traditional bow shoots as they will have some of the older archery stuff.I have a set in my display cabinet that I have had for probably 35 to 40 years.  They were great as they were all we had to choose from.

They blanked out the auction site, one of the large auction sites on the internet.

I hadn't thought of those or seen any of 'em since the 70's.
