Zildjian A's 13 in. Extra Thin

Posts: 6 Threads: 3

I came across these and could use some help with identification. They don't appear to be a matching pair or is this how they paired them back then?

The top metal stamps are different on each cymbal, as are the stamps inside the bell. The top cymbal is also stamped Extra Thin in black.

Thanks for any info. If these are valuable, I won't play them out. If they are low level, I've got some new hats!

The one on the left is early 1930's vintage. The one on the right is early 1940's vintage.

Thank you! Any idea as to the value, i.e. should I play them out?

About $175. Yes play them out, by all means. That's what they were made for after all.

Thanks so much! I hope you don't mind, but I sent a PM with a question about a Duplex Mfg. bass drum I might restore.
