If your thinking about selling please let me know!! Brass ring sounds like the "Tone Flange" that Slingerland used. Super cool drum.

Cymbal cleaner?

STOP!

If you have no experience cleaning these and plan to sell it, leave it to the buyer or you will harm the value.

Just being up front.

I would be interested.

Hi,

Would it be possible to see a few full side views (shell) and full views of the top and bottom heads (skins)?

Thank you.

That's a fancher model! That dates it to around 1928 - 1933. I'd easily place a value of around $800 ( likely a little higher ). That drums looks to be in amazing condition. From the photos you posted I see absolutely no issues.
