If you want the best available today, then you subscribe to "The Tape Project". They have been talked about in both Stereophile and TAS. Go here:

Option 2 is: hit the local record stores or Ebay. Lots of tape available! Just make sure its at a speed of 7.5 IPS or greater as these were the higher fidelity releases. Best to avoid all the stuff from "estate sales" as a heads up. Tapes are DURABLE but use common sense and ask the right questions.
Option 3 is: Get out there and record master tapes for yourself! Find bands, churches, whatever you like musically and set up shop. Make your OWN master tapes. Of course, you need some know-how here! A friend of mine has done just that and is releasing his own open reel tapes:

Option 4 is: See if you can schmooze Jack Seaton to make you some dupes of his master tapes.
