I know during any year of the 1950's catalogs, you had a variety of drum outfits to choose from. My question, is besides hardware, were there any differences in the shells?
I am trying to put together a 1950's Radio King kit, and found a guy selling a 50's RK 13" tom. The price seems a little high, however I am seeing some toms on Ebay that state they are from the 50's (some have stamps). I am wondering that if I were to pick up one of these other toms for less, and then change the rims and lug casings...would it be the same as an RK kit?
Any advice, suggestions, and whatnot would be appreciated!
