Slingerland 1950's 'Small Oval'' Badge Radio King Last viewed: 55 minutes ago

Posts: 904 Threads: 127

Hi all...maybe swopping one of my kits for a:

Slingerland 1950's 'Small Oval'' Badge Radio King with the script on the rack and floor toms...

It has the following sizes...20x14, 13x9 & 16x16

3-Ply Mahogany with Reinforcing Rings,

haven't seen any 20" bass drums but been looking between '52 and '55 as that i think is the year of the badge...

can anyone on here please help with a catalogue or a picture of a 20" as I know these don't come up very often in this configuration...

massive thanks

Well I found cataloged 18x20 from 51 with the FT not included and the tom not included, but both the tom and FT are in the same catalog.

By 55 the BD goes to 12x20 spurs attached.

Maybe somewhere in between the 14 lies. I can`t find 20x14 cataloged.

It`s a drum,.....Hit It !!

Wow! thanks so much for the update Oddball...is there any other Slingerland experts out there who can help please? Looks like this bass drum is not catalogued?

Moderator...is this post in the right group please?

I really can`t see the badge on your BD`s but the 63 Duet has two 14x20 and black and brass small oval badge. Both BD`s are virgin with clip spurs, I think.

So it is an era size cataloged.

Does your badge have a serial strip ?
