Gretsch Round Badge Vintage Drums - looking for assistance and ID

Loading...

Hello-

I'm looking for some help identifying the following drums-I've been having a tough time, which leads me to believe they are rare. Bear with me as I'm a guitar player. ; ) 

From what I have found so far:

-Gretsch round badge likely from the late 50s or early 60s - i've seen as renown or cocktail

-color is likely two-tone ivory and catalina green

-Specs: kick is 24" (typically I found these as 22"), snare is 14", and tom is 12"; one cymbal reads Made in Italy and 13", the other is 10"

-they are in varying "Goldilocks" condition, the kick is in rough shape, the tom decent, and the snare quite good

I haven't been able to find a serial number but will continue to look. I have more photos I can add. I'm hoping someone can help identify, give a range of value - I won't hold anyone to any numbers thrown out there. 

Much appreciated, thanks for having me in the community.

Ryan
