Early 40's WFL kit!

Loading...

off set lugs. RARE!

16x24 kick

14x16 floor (basket/no legs)

9x13 tom

7x11 tom

i think its from around 1943.

the closest thing i've seen to it is the "Victorious" era kit from 1942.

it has the WFL Keystone Badge with the words Wm. F Ludwig President around vent hole.

obviously its not completely original. all the lugs/hoops would of been wood not metal. but i just thought i'd share.

: )

i know the lugs in the middle of the kick aren't because they're Slingerland.

No no I wasn't implying that, I just don't understand how the slingerland parts are on a wfl!! since as you know both men Didn't care for each other, definitely a previous owner did it??
