How old could these be? And how worthy?
I'm not an expert on vintage drums, so I have no clue-whether to bid or how much...

[COLOR="DarkRed"]Yes, maybe 1960's....

But I gotta say, Gilnar...the condition of those drums is SCARY. The metal hoops are history...no way will the rust come of without losing the original chrome plating.
The lugs may be saveable...but my guess is they are probably very pitted.
The wraps are trashed....I wonder if the shells are even still in-round.
You are basically buying shells and lugs...and would have to put a LOT of work into it.
Not worth more than maybe $50-100usd maximum.[/COLOR]
Hi,Yes they are vintage sonors,by the badges i see set is late 60s--1967-1970..If the badges were two piece that would put the set from 1961-1966..I would not pay more then 150.00 for the set.I would buy it just for the parts to resell..it will take alot of work to restore but can be done.That is if the shells are good.By the photos the floor ton is missing 8 lugs,8 t-rods and the rim...bass is missing the tom mount tube..You would need to rechrome some of the parts maybe not all..And recover the set..So the botton line is do you have the time and money to restore the set...mikey
In this condition I wouldn't spend more that $ 50 for it.
Unless you're willing to pay lots of work (restoring) and patience (waiting on ebay for respective parts) and money (for those spare parts) and meanwhile thinking of having fun with all that dirty work with it: forget it.
