Looks like it might be right, I thought it was a black/silver badge, but closer look appears to be gold/black, now its looking pretty tempting......

Looks like a 56 to 59 with the "curly S" black and brass Chicago badge.
No serials until 60 or so, according to Dr. Wenk's Badge section in the Slingerland Drum Guide.

The drum is exactly as advertised! Also, check out the early version of the Rapid strainer, which is correct for the late 50's!

With a name like Slingerland, this should be a no brainer.
There is nothing in that post that is even close to a giveaway that the drum isn't from the 50s or early 60s.

No not me. Looks like a very nice snare. And pretty good deal with the case, stand, sticks, looks like the drum key in the bag. Sorry you missed it.
