Hold on... those aren't photos of the wraps, are they? They're actually samples glued to the tri-fold! Note that they're all slightly different in size and not lined up perfectly. Wouldn't it be great if they were still doing this?

Hey Ircollura,
Thanks so much for posting the Precision brochure!
It brings back some fond memories for me.
In 1967 my father & I wrapped my first drumset with Bermuda Sand purchased from a very similar Precision Drum Co. brochure. I still have that brochure with price list (and several others since then). I, also, still have that WFL drumkit and, despite having gigged it hard in the 60's & 70's, it still looks pretty good. What I don't have anymore is my father, so (I guess) this is why I really enjoyed your post.
Sometime, if I ever figure out how, I'd like to post photos of that kit: my father was a creative man and made some neat mods to my drums (remember, they were just an old, worn, drumset at the time) that others might like to see.
While they were still chipped, cracked, blue/silver duco he made spurs and a tom holder, from scratch. But, it was the addition of the Bermuda Sand sparkle that really set it off.
Anyway, thanks for helping me recall the summer my Dad and I undertook this project.

Yes i did see those hoop inlays for free with bass drum wrap purchase-unbelievable!Wish they had included a price list of the wrap but guess we needed to contact them for that. I think this is esp. a great literature history piece, not only from it`s time, but because it came from the time period of you and your dad(a first father son project as a teen). It just doesn`t get any better than that ! Great Stuff !!! Wayne
According to their website bass drum inlays are still free when you order wrap for a bass drum.
I love that "Tiger" and the Psychedelic. I have a few of these tri-folds from over the years but none are quite this old or include all those colors.
