Hi all!

First off: I always ended up looking in these forums while googling, enjoyed my time spent and learned a lot, but never registered. Now I actually have a good old kit (mid-70's Slingerlands), so I feel official enough to join. Woohoo!

Anyway...I was wondering if anyone has ever come across WFL soc brushes? I recently found a pair in the original bag at a swap meet, and someone wrote on the bag that they were a serviceman's during WWII. They have wood handles that say "WFL Soc Brush" on them, and the brushes themselves are little sticks of wood about 1/16th inch around. I tried to find them on Google, but got nowhere. (I bought them to go with my side collection of a WFL Speed King bass drum and hi-hat pedal.) Just wondering when they're from, and why wood brushes?

Thanks!

Troy
