Gretsch shells have not had re rings for 60 plus years.The only thing I can think of is it may have been cut down,or a concert bass with re rings added.Color of the shell looks gretsch also.

Thoses edges look like they were cut 2 minutes ago. I do not understand the re rings because even if the drum was from the 50's, it wouldn't have that badge on it. It looks like a marcher that has been completely face- lifted.
Keep fixing them up...

Sounds right to me. Rerings on a Gretsch shell? WTF? The claws and hoops aren't right, they look too modern for a 70's SB drum. Several things on that drum just don't add up. Somebody customized something. Mystery drum!
