The best way to find these kind of items is do a Google search for Replica WWII/Vietnam war documents/paperwork, etc. Yahoo groups has several groups dedicated to recreating WWI, WWII paperwork, packaging etc (I found a ton of items there, all free). They're free to join, the ones I follow are: doc hoovie, prop replicas, repro paperwork, ww2 repro depot, wwiifree paperwork, and WWII paperwork.

Search for WWII/WWI/Vietnam re-enactor sites, many of them have quite a bit of free paperwork for these eras, as the re-enactors try to be as authentic as possible. Also, try the official military sites (Army, Navy Marines, etc) as many of them have historical sections which cover documents/propaganda/packaging, etc, plus you can often download current documents and use these as templates/reference material for creating your own.

There are a few sites who sell replica paperwork on CD. They'll package certain types together ag: WWII Britain, WWII USA, etc, usually a combination of both military & civilian items.

Finally, if your looking for packaging/ads/product wrappers from that era, just do a search for them, you'd be amazed what's online.

I know this mostly covers WWI/WWII, but there is stuff out there for Vietnam and Korea if you look.

Here's a site that I've used before:
