Counter laminate

Does anyone know what brand of melamine laminate Airstream used for its counter tops in the '60's? I have to redo the kitchen counter and want it to match the table and rest of the work surfaces. The closest I've been able to find is Formica's White Onyx, but the pattern is'nt quite the same.

It was probably Formica brand as the pretty muched owned the market and the patent then. As in paint colors and ceramic tiles, tastes change over the years and patterns get discontinued. It will be difficult to get an exact match. You will most likely have to recover all the surfaces to get a match.
