I checked with Dr. Donald Boyd, who has retired from Lilly Research and
now works at Indiana University/Purdue University at Indianapolis. Here
is his reply:
"Regarding someone wanting to buy CPK models of beta-lactam rings, etc., they
would have to contact Ealing Corporation in Natick, Massachusetts. Eli Lilly &
Company never sold the models directly. I have not heard anything about Ealing
in ages. They may no longer be in business?"
Maybe someone else familiar with Ealing can take it from here. Hope this
helps somewhat.
