AJ,
Can you give a little more info.. what is the size of the bass drum.. probably a 20 in or 22 inch. Is it complete, both hoops, all the parts, legs, cymbal mounts.... any extra holes??
The snare... how many lugs.. 6 or 8.. can you describe what the snare tensioning device looks like??
If the bass drum is complete, clean and in excellent shape.. you might expect $150-$200.
The snare can vary greatly in value depending on which Slingerland drum it is... it could fall between $100 and $300.
It's just a wild guess without pictures or more complete descriptions..

I'm sorry, i really have no idea on measurments. the bass has both hoops and no hardware, the snare has a stand, and a key, but i'm missing the nut and bolt for the stand. i really appreciate you trying to help, if you want to see the pics i can email.
amanda send your pics to me I'll upload them here on the forum for you! this is my email adress, [email]boomwhack@gmail.com[/email]
No problem, just shot them over, and I'll post them,!
Hey guy's the pics are so large I couldn't get but two of them, the badge is the chicago 1956-1959 badge, the drums I think are just the bass drum and snare drum its a Hollywood ace color is light blue pearl! the bass drum is a 14x22"
AJ,
Pretty much a shot in the dark here but:
Based on recently ended auctions that resulted in completed sales on ebay.. right around $160 for the Hollywood Ace snare and $180 for the bass drum.
Good luck with the sale... very nice vintage color!

Awesome, thank you all sooo much!
