Vintage 1960s Rogers Holiday Drum Set – Champagne Sparkle – Dayton, Ohio

For sale is a beautiful vintage Rogers Holiday drum set, believed to date to approximately 1966–1968, featuring a matching Champagne Sparkle finish, classic Rogers script badges, gray-painted shell interiors, and Rogers Swiv-O-Matic mounting hardware.

This five-drum package includes four Dayton, Ohio Rogers Holiday drums, an early Big R Rogers Dyna-Sonic chrome snare, and accompanying hardware.

Drum Configuration

Rogers Holiday Drums – Approximately 1966–1968

• (2) 12” × 8” rack toms — identical dimensions
• (1) 16” × 16” floor tom

All four drums feature matching Champagne Sparkle finishes, gray-painted interiors, and Rogers Holiday paper labels identifying Dayton, Ohio manufacture.

Holiday factory serial numbers:

The serial numbers and construction features are consistent with the late-1960s production period. Whether all four drums originally left the factory together is unknown.

• Chrome-finish metal shell
• Ten-lug configuration
• Big R badge

The Dyna-Sonic is from a later Rogers manufacturing period than the Holiday drums.

Included Hardware

• Rogers Swiv-O-Matic double tom mounting system
• Rogers bass drum pedal
• Rogers hi-hat stand
• Snare drum stand
• One non-Rogers cymbal stand
• Floor tom legs and bass drum spurs

All hardware listed above is included in the sale. No cymbals are included.

Condition

Good vintage used condition.

The Champagne Sparkle finish presents attractively overall, with age-related cosmetic wear and some variation in appearance.

The chrome hardware shows typical vintage wear, including scratches, surface marks, and areas of oxidation. The bass drum hoops show paint wear and scuffing.

The drumheads are used and show considerable playing wear. Buyers may wish to replace them.

The tom mounting hardware, bass drum pedal, hi-hat stand, and Dyna-Sonic snare mechanism have been checked and operate correctly.

All four Holiday drums retain their interior paper labels. The exact originality of every component, fastener, and accessory has not been independently verified.

History

I acquired this drum set from a neighbor around 2014. Its ownership and service history before that time is unknown.

This is an attractive example of vintage American-made Rogers drums, featuring a distinctive twin 12-inch rack tom configuration, classic Champagne Sparkle appearance, and period-style mounting hardware.

The entire package is being sold together.
