Our local drum shop has these on consignment. I know they got the date from inside the bass drum. I know the heads are very old and probably from the era. I know the hihats are very small, bent and trash-canny.
That's all I know... but the people there are very knowledgeable and helpful so if you have interest, call them. I hve no vested interest, but they're cool and I figured you guys would like to see them.

The drums are on their facebook page...
Cool old drums! Thanks for posting the photos. Somebody must have painted them orange along the way to match some 'school,' or a teams' colors. Love the look of those old tubs. Must have been a lot of music played on them in all that time.

Wow those are some reaaallly old friggen drums...
I wonder, is there a date stamp inside the shells? Handwritten? Thanks for sharing.
Did someone on VDF buy this kit? They got a bunch of calls from New York and Maryland right after I posted it here, and sold it to someone in New York. Just curious. The drums were shipped this week.
