 I have carefully removed all parts, cleaned and polished shells with Novus 123, cleaned chrome.  Batter head on kick is a smooth Remo with period correct Ludwig logo.  These 3 ply mahogany/poplar/mahogany shells with maple re rings really sing.  Some micro pitting on the chrome, but overall, a 9 out of 10 for being over 50 years old.  All original white interiors. From the best I can tell, factory dual consolette mounts on the kick.  No extra holes and has cymbal mount too.  Maybe for a second tom or cowbell??? Shells are in the round and if you need additional pictures, let me know and be specific.  Here are the specs:20" x 14" bass drum.  Serial #383528 1966 and batter hoop had no inlay.  I replaced from Jammin Sam with the finish  "Sullivan" and it's as close as I could get.  Includes spurs and dual consolette mount.  Does NOT include cymbal arm.  Smooth Ambassador on resonant, Remo smooth white Powerstroke 3 on batter. One crack in the wrap, but you can't see it and have to run your finger across it to find it.  Last picture.
I'll carefully pack and ship with tracking and have shipped many drums all over the world!  Please check my feedback and check my other auctions.  Thank you!
