Like the other items offered in this sale, this cymbal belonged to BJ Wilson, who played it with Procol Harum for stage and recording work;
 it was later in the possession of Gary Brooker, who played BJ's kit for home demo purposes

This cymbal is apparently in pretty good condition: made by Zildjian, it's 16 inches across

Underbellky shot. Self-evidently we have not tidied up nor cleaned any of these items; they're offered in used condition and have clearly been in storage for quite a while.
Their historic patina will surely give them real appeal to BJ's fans – they are as he handled them – but of course they can also be
cleaned up, restored and so on as required by their eventual lucky owners.
