Gaskets Between Trunk Hinges/Latches and Body/Lid?

What's the ticket for sealing the interface between the trunk hinges and the rear deck/trunk lid surface? I've looked around at the various car parts places and Ace hardware and only find rubber/cellulose and rubber/fiber composites thin enough. These seem too rigid to do the job. Maybe there's actually a Lincoln part that goes here? Car is a '41 LC Coupe, but this application is probably common to lots of models.

Thanks, in advance.

I FOUND MINE AT BOOS- HERREL. They appeared to be rubberized cork. Glenn Lorei

I made mine out of black inner tubes. They also make good gaskets for the hood ornament and the price is right.
