E. W. Kent Drum Logos

The classic E. W. Kent drum logo logo used on their drumheads, available in your choice of size, style, and color. 

I have drawn up two versions of this logo; One is taken from the logo that was screen printed on Kent drumheads and has a rough hand-drawn look. The second is drawn with a modern serif typeface and has sharp straight lines while retaining the aesthetic of the original logo.

My vinyl logo decals are machine-cut and have no clear backing, so they are perfect for use as logos on resonant bass drum heads. The black or white matte finish vinyl gives a sharp, uniform look under stage lighting, while the other color options allow you to coordinate the color to your kit. I use professional calendared signmaking vinyl, primarily Oracal 651 Permanent Vinyl due to its durability and ease of application.

I’m passionate about continually growing my collection of vintage and hard to find drum and percussion brand logos. With great care, I’ve recreated these vintage logos from scratch, referencing old catalogs and drumheads to capture their original look and spirit. I’m always on the hunt for new gems to add to the collection. Your contributions and guidance are always warmly welcomed! If you have any reference art or suggestions, please feel free to share them with me anytime.
