Don't know why the image didn't load for me, but here's a link^^^

I guess it's not really an "official" Downbeat (even though it really IS)...because it's a 1967 shell pack and the DB snare is a '66...I can't remember off hand, but I THINK the configuration with the DB snare was phased out in the catalogs by then...but anyway...Here it is. And I also have a '67 Jazzette bass drum with close enough matching badge numbers that I can always swap out.

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.

Here's one in Vegas, and if my eyes don't deceive me it includes a Downbeat snare. And that snare looks like a Transition Badge Downbeat snare.

Yeah, I think he says on the ad someone swapped out the rail consolette for the mount, but I'm not sure.
