I'm not sure what exactly you call that old line, I've seen it before but I'm not familiar with the name for it.
So I don't know if its quite like what you're after, but you could try some braided nylon "squidding line." This is what I found on amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Woodstock-Fishing-Line-12-NS-50-108-G-13-Squidding/dp/B0084OM7F0 (I hope links to amazon are allowed, I didn't see a rule prohibiting it).

Then there is, of course, good old braided dacron, which is thicker and softer than modern braids. I've used the Tuf-line in green fleck as main line for big Penns that I use for bottom fishing. I think I've seen it available in black or plain white as well.
Or you could also consider using some modern super braid fishing line (in heavier tests so that its thicker like what is on the reel you pictured). You can get it in black, dark green, white, grey, etc.
I don't know if any of those suggestions would be quite like the original line, although I suspect the squidding line is closest/exactly the same. I've bought old reels like yours pictured and they had squidding line on them.
Maybe some of that helps you. Great looking reels too!
