This is a truly breath-taking find. Here's the story: Found in Washington Attic in original cases. Ordered by someone who apparently was drafter or enlisted in WWII and never came back. Set acquired untouched from soldier's daughter. There are a couple light marks where bass pedal attaches. Bass batter head has could light marks but rest of Slingerland-stamped heads look unplayed. Wraps and nickel are shiny to an extent not possible unless in time capsule cases for 70+ years. No cracks or damages in shells, wraps, or calf heads. No extra holes or modifications. Wraps are original, badges untampered with.
