There is a wooden boat building outfit in Seattle, they can point you in the right direction. Look in the back of Wooden Boat magazine. Plenty of ads for boat Lumber. Also any wood shop with a large band saw can make 1/8" veneer.

www.Edensaw.com will make you pretty much any kind of plywood that you want. At least that was the case the last time I asked them.

Yeah I was on the phone with them yesterday.

I buy all my venier from Bacon venier Calgary Alberta.
I am not sure if they still have a factory in the United States.

Try Colonial Hardwoods in Springfield VA.

Try a custom cabinet or furniture maker, one that is capable of resawing lumber. Any shop that has a bandsaw and wide belt sander can make all you need.

unlike the thin veneers (1/40") used to face plywood which are sliced off the log with big industrial knives, thick veneers like this (1/8") are sawn from planks, most people needing just a little bit will do it themselves ... but anyone with a big enough bandsaw can do it for you. Probably even the lumberyard you buy the raw mahogany plank from - ask them first.
