That is my favorite finish! I have a beautiful 20-12-14ft-16ft with a matching powertone., all Cleveland. I've been meaning to get a glamour shot of these. Perhaps this will light a fire.

Congrats on the kit!

I can't seem to stay away from Swivo era Rogers drum sets for very long. Until a few months ago, I had been without a Rogers drum set for about three years. Then, my favorite vintage drum shop located in Houston put a 1966 Rogers Top Hat set (20-two 12s-16) on display. These drums hollered out that they wanted to come home with me. What surprised the heck out of me is that Silver Sparkle--even the Rogers Silver Glass Glitter--has never appealed to me. That all changed in the proverbial heart beat. I brought this drum set home with me. I already had a similar vintage COB Powertone snare. But, I always lust for matching wood shell snare drums for my drum sets. A new VDF friend surprised me with a 1966 Luxor snare that is a perfect match for the drum set. Luxor snare drums are my co-favorite Rogers snares with wood shell Holiday snare drums. I just took on a little project to further expand this drum set. I have a set of 1950s or 1960s Ludwig drum set bongos that had been re-wrapped in Red Sparkle to match a set of orphan shells that I re-wrapped and sold. I forgot that I had them until a few days ago. The red wrap was held on with the tape method. They easily shed that wrap. I located a strip of Silver Glass Glitter wrap online that is ample enough to wrap the two little bongo drums. pictures of completed project will be posted when completed.

That's a nice kit.

Very cool kit JR. There's gotta be some kind of clear self-leveling epoxy you could follow those cracks with. Or leave it if you're going to flip it I guess. :)

Now let's get Dave to post that glamour Cleveland shot.
