Great question.
I don't think anyone makes it for "us."

Did the Progress coolers have seals on them?  I have never seen one, but I guess I've only bought rougher condition coolers.  Is it just a rubber seal that fits onto the main cooler seam?  There is a company out there that reproduces lots of older refrigerator seals, I'll see if I can remember the site and post it.

The only ones I've seen were in the lid seam that mates with the edge of the tank when the lid's in place, they look like foam rubber & seemed to be held in place by rubber cement.

I have always used the small rubber tubing that you use on storm doors.  I just use a silicone glue and then use a razor blade to cut the opening for the cooler seam, it has always worked for me.

Certainly there is a seal on the 2 smaller sized Progress coolers.
To be specific,...the A2 and the A4/A5.

Yes that's a A4... Vintage Vending use to make/sell that gasket... I think someone even advertised for it in Club Soda I believe...
When they sold out there was a pile of it on eBay... there has got to be someone who has some or knows someone who does....
Does Soda Jerk Works owner know the owners at one time... maybe they'd know... Wish I would have bought some...  down
