Can you locate it on this page?Slingerland Snare Drums
it looks a lot like the "artist model"
in fact i am pretty sure that this is mine.
two more questions:
how does the "radio king" differ
and what is it worth approx. ( its in near mint condition only some pittings/pimples on the chrome parts)
cheers!

These are in the $200 +/- range for your finish and more for a rare finish.
The Radio King name usually was a single ply drum and used during different years
of Slingerland History.
Your snare is probably a 3-ply drum.
