I'm offering these to a true collector before going to Ebay.Echo Tone congas made by Frank Mesa in the '50s,'60s (Brooklyn).These are from '67.Selling 2 out of 4.Very good conditin,great harware no rust,new heads,excellent sound.Superior in sound and craftsmanship to any of today's congas.Played by Patato,Willie Bobo, Candido,Barretto,Frankie Malabe,The Rascals,James Brown,Earth Wind and Fire....
I could possibly trade them,will sell off the trade.I want these rare beauties to go to someone who is a true collector.Will take $750 (very reasonable) or interesting trade so that I can sell.Pictures attached.JC, do you like?

Wow! A true collectors item these are.
I know JC has been wanting you to sell them to him for ages!
