If anyone has some insight into the Rogers numbering system I would love to see it also. Not sure if they were consistent across the various types with numbering such as the Luxor vs Powertones. I have several Rogers snares and would love to date them.

Hmm... 6-digit serial number from the late Dayton era or even early Fullerton era doesn't sound right to me. Can you post pictures of the drums, showing the serial numbers? That would certainly help us figure this out.

These are the numbers on the tags--all Dayton...

If all the tags are Dayton, then you are looking at around 1967-68.

68-69 speckled gray Dayton. Hex head fasteners. Perhaps even white felt dampeners.

I have the following snares and when I bought them the various sellers told me 60's

Not sure if Rogers is more exact on their timelines or not, or if our Guru's can assist?

Luxor BDP Cleveland Ohio Tag 1691

Luxor White/Black Onyx Cleveland Ohio Tag 10455

Luxor Red/Black Onyx Cleveland Ohio Tag 13967

Am still looking for a Luxor snare in Dark Blue/Black Onyx to round out the collection

Anyone have one they want to relieve themselves of? Does not need to be in mint condition, part of the joy of my collection is shining them and bringing them back to showcase condition.

13967 is a Speckled Gray Dayton era drum... 68 and later.... Cleveland tag on Speckled Drum... puts it at the end of the Dayton era. There are a few drums with this unique characteristic. Internal fasteners will be hex on this one.

Ploughman, so, what are my drums year/years. original post. thanks.

Ploughman did answer this question, 68-69. Any reason you can't post pictures of the interiors and labels?
