Picked these up last week. Got some cleaning to do, but they are going to be sweet. calf heads on the bass and 13, original cowbells/woodblock/mount, catalog from which the drums were ordered.

Anyone know what the thing on the upper right shown here is (not the tambourine!)?

That is a cymbal sizzler - gives the rivet sound without holes - maybe the rivets have fallen out

Awesome time-capsule and provenance (cat pages with notations). Look forward to the after pics.

Enjoy!

So I've been hard at it, and started working on the bass drum head and was wondering if anyone had any ideas. Someone had the bright idea of

a) putting the name 'ron' right in the middle of the G, and

b) putting some sticker (than removing it) over said G.

Ron's name is mostly illegible now, but the adhesive is not coming off easily. I'm leery of using anything harsh on the calf especially around the logo.
