This is so cool. This is meaning the story is seeming more and more true my grandpa was told.

From Mr.Lud

Okay more news....I showed the old man this and is there a chance they had a different tag? Like maybe a drum shop piece but it looked different? As soon as I showed him he said no that's not it. Also I believe this is a red wrap shell too. Not painted. Anyone confirm this?

It is possible that George Hamilton The Drum Shop changed their tags yearly or only a couple of times. Your snare has their stamp inside, that`s the only place it would get it. I`m quite certain your drums came from George Halmilton`s drum shop at one time !!

If the old man is so sure that`s not it,..How come he can`t tell you what it looked like ??

It`s a drum,.....Hit It !!

Awesome thanks much. No he said it was a brass tag. He said it may have said the drum shop. However when I showed him that he said right away it wasn't shiny at all.

This is really neat. This kit shouldn't even exist! lol. This is getting cooler by the day. I can't wait to get a the whole kit online.

Who has any idea what they were thinking when they made this. Its def a very very unique kit. I am going to start getting some calls going out and seeing what we can dig up about it. See what it is worth, clearly its a original finish and we have every single original piece to it. Who knows we need to get all kinda questions answered yet. I figure we can work on them one at a time and hopefully solve the mystery of the kit that shouldn't exist.
