That surplus canvas left 25 years ago and is for the most part long gone. I recall a whole deuce load of jeep canvas being sent back to base supply for disposal. It would likely have been released as either bulk canvas salvage, or else tossed into the garbage.
Brand new doors were not that common. The old doors had to be condemned first, and we had a base textile workshop that would merely re-skin the old ones.
Even the NOS canvas that did get sold off is very subject to deterioration from it's storage conditions. I unfolded a brand new deuce tarp about a month back that turned out to be rotten in several places and beyond use.
