What a fantastic legacy. I got to spend a couple of afternoons with the original owner of my Oaklawn Camco kit. These kind of things put a value on an instrument that can't be measured.

1974-75 Rogers Starlighter IV New England White 13/16/22 (w/Dyna)
1964-67 Rogers Blue Glass Glitter 12/14/16/20
early Oaklawn Camco Blue Moire 12/14/20
1926 Super Ludwig 5x14
1960-ish Ludwig COB 5x14 Super Sensitive
1960-ish Ludwig COB 6.5x14 Super Sensitive
1970 Ludwig COB Cut-Badge 5x14 Supra Phonic

Looking for a Camco Aristocrat SD in Blue Moire!!

Couldn't agree more.

I'm all about the history and provenance.

Priceless to me.

Ditto on that. Nice interview and nice drum. I don’t have history on anything I have. Very special.
