Yes, I have an Apollo set in WMP. 12/13/16/20. There's pics of it on the forum somewhere.

Did you want to know something specific about them?

I have an Apollo Snare, and I love the Star drums. How can I help?

Just looking for a way to identify the year, model etc..

Thanks for the reply. Just looking for a way to identify year,model etc..

Well, unfortunately, there really isn't a way to find an exact date on these drums. We can pin them down to an era, and your set was likely made sometime around 1967-1971. It's hard to get any closer than that.

There may be some catalog pages somewhere on the net that might show a model name, but I haven't found any.

Other than that, we can tell you what you probably already know, that your set was made by Star (the company that would later become Tama,) has a cool looking blue satin flame wrap, a somewhat rare double tom mount, Sonor copy 'teardrop' style lugs (off-set on the rack toms,) no reinforcement rings, shells made of luan, (maybe 5-6 ply?) and your shells are probably painted grey on the inside.

Forum member Stash posted about the connection between Apollo drums and St. Louis a while back, "The Apollos are plentiful in St. Louis because the now shuttered St. Louis Music used to distribute them in the 60s to area retailers -- one in particular was Mel Bay Music in Kirkwood."

Hope this is somewhat helpful.

Thanks for the info. Love the set. Still sounds great .

There's a little bit of info here:
