Great stories guys.I got my 47 super Gene Krupa WMP Radio king,at a yard sale,for 20 bucks.This yard sale,was a reschedule from the previous week,that was rained out.
So I stop by,and I spot an old square fibre case.In side was the RK snare.I ask how much,and the guy says "20 bucks,but you missed the rest of the set,I sold last week for 80 bucks".He had put the snare behind some other boxes,and had forgotton about it....lucky for me.He had a pic of his kid "playing " the whole kit.He hated these drums,which were his grand fathers,and just wanted them out.
This drum is 7-8 out of 10.Very little yellowing.I asked if there was any more drums or cymbals,and he said no.I handed him the 20,and ran like a thief in the night.
