Found these at a thrift store in Meridian, MS. :) A friend mentioned that there was a set of Gretsch drums at the thrift store. I was only in town for the day and the store was closing in 10 minutes, and I just happened to be right down the road. I raced to the store and to my disappointment the drums were some cheapies that had a Gretsch reso head priced at a ridiculous $350... but sitting right next to them was another set.. these!! It was only the kick and the tom. They clerk told me they were $75 so i jumped on them. As i was ready to pay she pulled out the matching Royal Ace Snare too sweeten the day!
Turns out they are 1958-1960 Premier.. Further research also revealed that these are not the olympic badge despite the olympic reso on the kick. Very happy.
