Does anyone know when/what year Camco switched to the 6ply shells? Sometime in the mid to late 60s?

George Way - 1957-1960 3ply
1961 4ply
Camco Oaklawn- 1961- approx 1965 4ply
approx 1965 - 1971 6ply
There are a few 3 ply shell Camcos but they are quite rare. My 5x14 Burgundy Sparkle Tuxedo lug Camco Oaklawn is a 3 ply shell.

L.A. Camco drums are 6 ply but they are also Keller shells not Jasper like George Way and Camco Oaklawn & Chanute era drums.
