www.icipaints.com should be able to help. A few years ago I remember a Dr fellow in Bath who'd rubbed down his front door which was almost 300 years old. I seem to remember reading that the Doc contacted ICI, sent them a couple of scrapings, and ICI made the guy some 300 year old paint.
Got to be worth a shot. ICI love the publicity for things like this, so it shouldn't cost you much, if anything at all.
