COOL!

Send pix when you get 'em home.

I'm going to have to start looking at those places!

Good find!

I will post pics soon. In the meantime, the serial number starts with B, so looks like a 1974 Londoner V set. And unfortunately only one swivel arm, but I am a one tom tom kind of guy anyway.

I have a champagne sparkle Apollo set (see my other posts) that I found at a Goodwill about 2 years ago for $100. So this is my second Goodwill score. I would love to know the story behind these, and how they end up there....

Sorry, my pic is poor quality, but my regular camera pics are too large, even after cutting them, so this is with my phone. I noticed a few odd things.. the rack mount is set far back ( I am not seeing that on any others). I 1st thought I had wrong side, but look at where the legs are for the front of the bass drum. Bass drum is 24x14, which I am not seeing anywhere either, in catalog scans, etc.

Yes,tom mount is too far back...

If you swung the BD around,the mount would be in the right place......but,then the spurs would be in the wrong place!Hmmmm

I think the BD came from a double bass kit,the guy sold off the other bass,and drilled the mount in the wrong place...

It would have been a virgin BD then,right?

Take the tom mount off,and see if the holes drilled are rough....then you know if it was non factory drilled.......

Rogers made a lot of 24" BD's in the Fullerton era.....so not that unusual....

I have not seen enough 9/72 rogers to comment,but I do remember the rogers book saying that they orig used jasper shells, first went to keller because they would make larger sizes,I will bet that 24 packs a wallop.
