Incredible fat and round edges like i have never seen before. I have 1973 Slingerland kit and the edges are very different.
Keep fixing them up...

I can hear them in my head. Those big Gretsch style round-over bearing edges make for FAT, warm sounding drums. Excellent score! The condition is unbelievable. I think those blue badge kits were made during the late 50's/early 60's but don't quote me, it's just what I recall.
Congrats brother, you did real good!

Leedy oval blue badge was only used in 1957 and 1958! You have an almost mint kit of 50's Leedy drums brother. For $650 in the condition they are in, you stole them! :D

Oval blue badge was also used in the sixties. This set is mid '66 or later, please see Drum Image Gallery-Leedy 12/12/16/20 thread for more information about this kit.
