Extremely Rare! 26" Gretsch Timpani 1958 Copper. Crazy Cool Crazy Rare

This is a one of a kind EXTREMELY RARE!!!   I couldn't find another GRETSCH Timpani anywhere until I stumbled upon a Gretsch Catalog from 1958 and there it was!  
      They only made them from 1958-1961.  This drum  is of the 1st year's first model.   The sound is outstanding. Reverberation is epic.   The foot pedal moves with ease.  the springs connect with ease and best of all, Everything works as it should!   The 26" bowl is 100% copper and gorgeous.  The Bowl is a little dented up but not bad at all for a 60+ year old drum.   Authentic, very rare, very nice.
