Here we have two 15" Slingerland toms, but very different.
Small one has a rubber stamp "P" not sure what that means. Poplar, maybe? No badge. Year unknown.
Larger one has a badge serial 490xxx and does not have the same set o matic mount holes.
Any comments ?
I am curious when the toms stopped having the rings the smaller one has.

I'd say the stripped one is later, late 60s early 70s. It was drilled for a set-o-matic mount and has hex head screws for the lugs.
"P" does stand for "pearl" any shell destined to be wrapped got that stamp.
The green one is a 5 ply shell. I'd guess late 70s early 80's. Looks like it had a Rogers Memri-Loc bracket installed at one time.

I have three of these shells with the Memri-Loc holes, thanks for the ID, it had me a bit puzzled, but now I see what was done here.
What year is the cat?
Cool, were cat (and dog) people here too. No dog at the moment, three cats.
I have a five ply Slingerland kit, they are fantastic drums.

That later Rogers Tom Mount pattern was throwing me from Slingerland.
Definitely looks like Rogers Big R Mount footprint.
