EDIT:
I found white and black fiber at RC Tonewoods in 36" lengths, costing ~ $57 to ship in that length.
Called RCTW and they told me if I wanted, they would roll it up so it fit in a stand shipping box- awesome.
I will use this for heel cap layering, to match the binding purfling.....

They have a large selection of thin veneer.

I have some white I would be glad to give you, but no black....

I have some black dyed holly veneer at that thickness.

FWIW, also accidently discovered that in Win10, [SHift + ESC] will open a [Browser Task Manager] and allow the user to end a number of processes on the active tab..... handy when a website locks up your browser/ system!

Sorry, I can't delete threads.
I did change the title and edited the first post; contacted RC Tonewoods and they will roll that long veneer up and put it in a box reducing the shipping cost by ~75%

Now that my heal cap is guled on, a follow up on shipping cost of RC Tonewood's 36" long veneer sheets (fiber):

I talked to Peter at RCT and he said they can simply roll in loose, large radius, put in a regular box and ship that way. He had to process the order over the phone, the CART system calculates shipping based on product dimensions. That saved about $40 on over-sized shipping rates. RCT was easy to work with, responsive and helpful.

As a bonus, now I'll have material to cut and laminate for BWB bottom binding strip, without having to order $$$ purfling
