After nearly two years of searching, I finally found a matching 14" floor tom (and even made the same year as the others). This beautiful kit is now complete!

Thanks guys! I found the floor tom on Ebay (it was only an hour and a half away in Columbus, OH). The gentleman who sold it to me found it in a middle school bandroom and it was missing the legs and bottom hoop/tension rods. Luckily, I won the auction and also found period correct legs and parts. All drums are flat grey Cleveland shells and the wrap color matches quite well. It's almost as if it was meant to be :)

Gorgeous! That Rogers quality just oozes from the picture. You can feel it just by looking. Great story of the floor tom too!

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.
