Here is a marcher, that has the badge your drum did and should have, the drums you have are leedy,made and owned by slingerland, the shells are slingerland, but the lugs and the bass drum tension rods and the bass drum claws are leedy! this is on ebay! http://cgi.ebay.com/Vintage-Leedy-Snare-Marching-Drum-14-x-9-1-2-Red-Gold-/360266121582?cmd=ViewItem&pt=Vintgae_Drums_Percussion&hash=item53e188c16e

yep, that looks like it. I had a chance to measure the BD tonigte. it is 14X18. at least all the shells i have match up and are dated the same. thats one positive thing i think i have going for me. i appreciate all the help. super cool!

There's one in the Drum Guide for 1964Link................It's the only 18 inch shell in that catalog, so that was what brought up the idea.Did find a 14x18 in the 1960 Leedy catalog though, but not in the 1965.... must have used them all up for "Jets" in '64 maybe ?? .....

Sure enough! I stand corrected! :o

I wish I could find a Jet kit in nice, minty condition!flowers2

Man, me too......

I saw probably three or four last summer, but none at all so far this year.

Seems I'm never quite "prepared" enough when they come around !!

Post in the Wanted section and start looking on eBay.... they will turn up.

What you want is Leedy though, right ?

mmm...I'll probably label this kit a Slingerland where all the shells are matching Slingerland shells. Even if it has some Leedy hardware. At least I know what it is now!
