What is it worth? -1964 Ludwig kit NEW added serial numbers

*NEW - added serial numbers & pic of tom mount (Below). Bass #5597, Tom #109353, Floor #371993
1964 (I believe) Ludwig kit. 20",13"16" White marine pearl.
The snare is a 1963 (I think). Bought separately. The inside of the drums are painted white. Does anyone know what model this kit was called & what it maybe worth? I appreciate any info. Thanks.

The serial number you picture looks like 37199x (cannot make out the last digit). That would indicate a 1966ish date. The snare appears to have 8 lugs, which would make it a Jazz Festival rather than a Pioneer. The throw is a P-85, the original would have been a P-83. The tom mount is for a double tom set up and has a more modern black plastic T-bolt. Is the tom set up for left or right hand side mounting?

It appears to be a put together set with a range of serial numbers, so value may suffer a little. It looks like it originally had a rail consolette and the four holes were filled. The color matches pretty well, so still nice as a player.

Check ebay and Reverb completed sales for comparable sets. WMP is a common wrap, so not to hard to find. Look for comparables for the snare separately.
