I'm thinking 70s. Stamp almost looks like late 50s, but I don't see hammering, so I'm going with 70s. Drumaholic will probably catch this and tell you near-about what day they were made.

I'm no guru, just a vintage drum junkie!

Cool. Yeah I found them with the 18" on a used set of drums. The drums aren't that old but the cymbals really caught my eye. The hats are smooth and full. The 18" is really a complex cymbal. It reminds me a small amount of an 18" new stamp K I had, once, in its shape albeit with less hammering. It can be loud but has good stick for ride patterns on it. Thanks again Bill.
