Any numbers imprinted inside?

Believe the 6 ply shells did not come out until later 60's. Badges?

Congrats Johnny! Incredible kit!

Your kit is "K-170 Chicago" or "K-180 Chicago Star" (1963-65).

I can say for sure that this set was no later than 1966, since this beautiful wrap "M-Kristall-Schwarz-Silber" (eng. cat. "M-Sparkling-Black-Silver-Striped") still was in current Sonor products in 1965 and was already absent in 1967.

Cheers,

George.

Just these and here's the interior.

Congrats, Johnnyringo. George is correct about the dating. My kit - I posted a pic in your previous topic - is late 1950s. The lugs are different from yours, the badges and the tom mount. In fact, I would guess that your kit must be one of the last 3-plies, or at least a very late run.

And I don't think the floor tom legs are original on your kit. They should be straight, at least mine are.

Nice looking kit, Johnny Ringo. -some very unique-to-the-brand kinds of things...has almost a Trixon kind of Jetsons vibe to it....albeit much higher quality than Trixon...but just sayin' that's the vibe I'm picking up from them.

More pictures....

I'm seeing a different wrap lot number on the floor tom.

The 13,20 are more faded than the 16, but they are the ssme finish.

Super cool kit Johnny! Best lugs ever...but should be re-nicknamed “lawn dart lugs” IMHO.
