Just picked these up online. Stoked to get them in. Judging by the grommets, looks to be rewrapped, but from what I understand these sizes are pretty rare. 18x14, 14x14, 12x10

Christopher is the 402 a keystone badge drum.? also the bass drum looks to be a 18x16" wonder if it's a converted floor tom?the snare drum alone if it's a real keystone 402 is worth the price alone.
These were on another post a few days ago from Verminator (he passed) http://www.vintagedrumforum.com/showthread.php?t=52112 Definite re wrap. Awesome looking kit though
Looks like it would be a fun kit to play! Definitely looks to be a re-wrap with the grommets like that. If you get a few minutes, post photos of the interior of the drums as well.

Definitely rewrapped as Ludwig didn't use that type of WMP. I'd agree that the bass looks like a converted floor tom (16" deep) and possibly a six ply shell. Regardless they should make for a neat set and as others have said the snare is likely worth the price by itself. Fill us in when you get them.
Is 10x12 a weird size as well? I assumed it would be a 8x12.

10x12 is not a 60's size...(8x12 was the standard up until the late 70's "power tom" era) but in the picture it looks to me like an 8x12, although it's hard to say for sure.
Thank you! I mean sure, grommets, but come on!
