Hi, When I was a child in 1964, my father bought me a drum set from Sid Sherman Music on Wabash in Chicago. They were an import stencil brand but the badge said; “White Eagle” made in Japan and had calf heads which said “Gold Crown”. I’m just wondering if this was the same as the drums they later imported and labeled as “Werco” which seems about right. Any insight or catalogs you may have of this era would be of great interest to me!
Thank you for your time!
I have one… Pristine condition in the original box.
Is it worth anything?
