hi jennifer,

i'm glad you asked this question because it forced me to finally find the answer. diane akright from the rock-tenn company has this to say about davey board --
"Davey was a company that made wet lap bookboard product that was designed to meet a variety of bookboard needs. One of those products was Davey Red Label (often described as Davey Board). Rock-Tenn Company purchased the Davey company in 1997 and has since incorporated the Red Label product and the Acid Phree product into our product line.

All other Davey Board lines have been discontinued. Red Label is a high density bookboard product that meets all NASTA textbook specifications. Red Label is sold in some stock caliper and sheet sizes, and is mostly sold through a series of distributors since many times customers needs are too low for production runs."

hope this helps. have a lovely fall!
