See this link from the sister site:

It's the 1970 Pearl catalog. It has the new Pearl logo on the front of the catalog, but the 1969 Pearl logo on the front of the bass drums (on the front of the catalog)...

The current Pearl logo has remained basically unchanged since then...

Ditto on the thanks. Looks like Pearl actually had three logos. Interesting
