Can anyone ID these? The BD has the same T-handles and claws as my old Ludwig bass drum but I understand these were made for a lot of drum companies at the time. It looks to be a 6 lugger (not sure on size) so nothing very special and it looks like it once had a painted head but has faded to nothing. The temple blocks do look cool (and quite worn) but are they worth anything? The snare looks to be one of those Mastro plastic things from the 60s. I love this old stuff but I'm not sure if it's worth taking these on. Any advice?

Yep, those Mostro snares go for $25-50 on Ebay. Toys. The rest is pretty cool and interesting. I'd like to see some more closeups. That's a very early cymbal stand, I believe. Not sure I've seen one that old looking. Most were bass drum mounted to go with that bass. Temple blocks could be valuable if in good condition and how is their hardware?

Thanks optiguytom, unfortunately (or fortunately possibly) they sold whilst I was waiting for some questions to be answered. Went for around $US200 which is quite reasonable but it was something I didn't need right now. I would've bought them to save them from a life of coffee table service in the case of the bass drum. I think the buyer is a muso so they'll probably stay as actual working drums, which is nice
