Seeking old practice pads

Hello drumming friends — I’m compiling data for what I hope will eventually be a little book about the history and development of practice pads. To that end, I’m looking for older (pre-1955) pads to buy and research.
If you have an interesting older pad you plan to keep, would you be up for sending me a couple photos of it to help in my research?
Thanks in advance and happy drumming —

Good morning, Beth:

Attached is a pic of 3 practice pads I have that fit your description. I'm interested in selling all of them. Let me know if you'd like to purchase one or all three, or would just like more photos.

Please advise.

Best,

Oops. I couldn't attach the photo. Let me know your email address and I'll get it to you that way.
