I believe that is part of the Japanese stencil kits.

During the 1960's and part of the 70's there were lots of different drums coming from Japan. There were probably at least 30 different drum names coming from japan but these drums were being made by Pearl and Tama and probably some other companies were making drums also. So a stencil drum is a drum that was made by pearl or tama or another one of those companies but doesn't necessarily have the Pearl or Tama name on it.
