Came across this cymbal in a bag with some Nice looking older Paiste Sound Formula 602 Hi Hats ( need some cleaning ). Does anyone have any info on this? Its pretty heavy, will probably sell or trade it, but would love some info.
It is stamped near the bell B&H NY.

Looks like B. & J. to me.....?
Buegeleison & Jacobs were New York distributors of all kinds of musical instruments that were made under contract by others (1920-30's until ? ) . They did not manufacture anything.
My bad. Obviously b&j h is right next to the j. Are they worth anything? The other hats are pre serial formula 602. Top seem pretty light bottom along a medium. Might sell these as well.
The distributor was Buegeleison & Jacobson. This cymbal looks like one of those heavy thick clanger cymbals that sound like a raw metal plate.
