Obviously it has a different wrap but the hardware looks identical to mine which I'm also trying to ID. You probably already saw it if you were looking through the posts, but if it will help you can see it here.

That's a nice blue sparkle, I bet it looks amazing under stage lights.

Cool kit, and it comes with a remote! Excited

Yeah man, the finish on yours is beautiful.

These are more than likely a stencil brand. We see far more Pearl made stencil kits that have no names than Pearl kits that have no badges on them. See, many stencil kits from this era had no badges at all, some had foil sticker type badges. Many times the foil ones either came off in the heat of an attic or were peeled off because they became loose around the edges and looked bad. Those with no badges typically had the thicker shells. Can you tell us, are the shells thin with re-rings in them or about 1/4" thick with no rings? If they have rings, they are more than likely pre-67.

Anyway, they look clean.

The shells are actually quite thick and have the added ring.

Would you take better angled shot of the edge? More like a straight on pic? That way I can tell if it is 3 or 5 ply.

I'll have to when I get to go back home. I had to leave for college and couldn't take them with me. I'll be sure to snap some better shots when I can.

Thanks so much for your help!

Hey there,

The new Adobe Acrobat Reader doesn't seem to be letting me snap screen shots off of the PDF Pearl 1968 catalog like I used to- I'd love to post the exact picture of this kit- will keep trying. Mister T

Anyway, this is in the 1968 catalog as "Outfit #067" Pearl Thunderking

It's got the right lugs and the exactly correct 68 Thunderking tom holder. The snare strainer fits the 68 as well. 67 strainers (atleast in the catalog I have had a rounded/cylindrical throw rod)

Your kit looks in good shape, wrap is in nice shape, I like the re-rings and the edges look good. The pedal and hihat stands are valuable only for their historical value- they are not playable live. The older cymbals are recycling unfortunately unless you play avante garde jazz. If you want a value- on this I would say realistically, in this economy about 150$-200$
