Calling all Slingerland/Radio King experts:
What's the approximate year for a Radio King floor tom with the MINI beavertail RK lugs, double mufflers, single-flange hoops, rods with rim clips, and engraved hoops?

Based on a quick look in The Slingerland Book... some where between 40 and 46. What color is the felt on the muffler? Grey usually means 43 or later.
I'm no expert... just checking the book.
Thanks Jim. The muffler felts are red.
Red... nice. Book says the the small beaver tails came out around 1940. Cup washers and colored felt went away around 1942.. so that starts to narrow it down pretty close.. real early 40's for sure.
Cool!
