David,

Being unsure what makes your list of the "usual sources," I can only recommend
Ocean State, Antique E.S., $urplus $ales of Nebr., Fair Radio, and A.G.
Tannenbaum. For can type (FP and other) electrolytics, the last may be the best
source. I did a quick check, and they have a number of 100 MFD/500V units in
stock. They are at www.agtannenbaum.com.
