So some of you may have seen this kit on ebay last month. I won it. Turned out to be much nicer than I expected. Mostly just 60 years of grime. One owner ALL original! Been sitting since late 50's! Cleaned up very nice except for the slight yellowing. Nickle is really nice. Anyway, I've been trying to date it based on the hardware through the Ludwig Book. This kit has 2 brackets on both sides of the bass drum. I'm guessing they are for cymbal arms?? But they are slightly canted outward, so the arms would not be pointed straight up. It is almost done, just gotta finish up the bass drum hoops. Here is how it was, and how it sits now.

Here are a couple of pics of the bracket in question.
