To make my 50?s WFL Black Marine Pearl set 100% complete and original I?m looking for 2 22? bass drum hoops. I will also consider 60?s or 70?s era hoops of different brands as long as the BMP inlay match?s the 50?s WFL inlay. I though these would be pretty common on e-bay but have been searching for a long time with no luck. Can anyone help me out here?

I think I?ll reply to my own post here. I found some black diamond pearl (don?t know why I was calling it black marine pearl) hoops apparently off a 1971 bass. Can anyone tell me if the Ludwig wrap in the early seventies was the same style as the wrap used in the mid fifties? I remember seeing a 70?s set in BDP that looked very different to my 50?s wrap, the ?chip? pieces looked a lot smaller. It?s hard to tell what style of wrap is in the inlay of these hoops because it?s so narrow. Is it wrong to restore a 50?s set with 70?s hoops? I don?t think I?ll ever find the matching 50?s hoops. Any thoughts or opinions would be much appreciated.
