How about a "new" bass drum that just looks old? We recycle old marching bass drums into rope tensioned bass drums and add the internal light bulbs and have fun with them. Just a thought. This may be older than you desire. Good luck.

I have a turn of century monster with most all of it gold hardware one hoop it’s

used to belong to knights Templar with 2 calf heads there not in the best of shape but drum is

beside chipped paint

April 2nd 1969 scarfed pink champagne holly wood and 65/66 downbeat snare, and , supra same year very minty kit old pies
66/67 downbeat with canister
Super 400 small round knob
1967 super classic obp





once the brass ceases to glitter, and the drum looses its luster, and the stage remains dark, all you have left is the timbre of family.

Have several... here are a few. They are a little dusty but condition is as clean as you can get. Original... Heads are also in great condition. PM if you want to discuss. Not too sure about the cost of shipping as I have never attempted to package up a 28”. Would need to search the web for a shipping box. Not a store. Collecting since early 90s. Collection is massive.
