If I were looking for something like this the first place I'd inquire is
at the Geography and Map Division, Library of Congress. I know from
seeing them that they have a tremendously /huge/ collection of plastic
raised-relief models there and would be surprised if they didn't have
one or a group that covers the U.S.-Mexico border. You can pose a this
question to the Reading Room staff there through the "Ask a Librarian"
link found here: http://www.loc.gov/rr/geogmap/

Sincerely,

Paige
