The Slingerland name stamped into the bass drum spur clamp might be a clue. ;)

(Sorry, couldn't help myself.)

[list]

[*] Lower left is part of a clamp-on bass drum spur.

[*] Lower right are a pair of Slingerland "beavertail" (the official name was "super") lugs, circa 1940-1955.

[*] Dead center I believe is an old hi-hat clutch. (Is the bolt hollow?) I'm sure some of the more experienced guys can confirm or correct.

[*] Looks like some sort of cymbal stand tilter in the upper left. Again, one of the older hands around here can probably be a whole lot more specific.

Not a problem Skydog! I actually thought it was a cymbal mount, but you nailed it (after taking a second look) duh

All three of the items you believe are a clutch, are in fact threaded. Any thoughts out there on who produced them?

Thanks also for the info on the lugs!

Rephrase:

Skydog....the item you are speaking of is indeed hollow throughout. It looks to be a tappered/slotted thread. If you tighten the bottom section, it gets tighter around whatever "rod" is through it.

The 3 to the left of this, is threaded on the ends.

Hey Surface-What you have is-on the top is a W&A cymbal tilter.the three other things under that are Duplex or W&A cymbal holders..in the middle is a W&A hi-hat clutch and to the right the two things are parts that mount under the clutch on the h-h rod..the other parts are slingerland radio king lugs,spur mount,claw...The W&A parts are from the 30s-40s..slingerland parts are from the 40s...Mikey

Great info Mikey! Thanks!
