Identify Ludwig snare, Year?

[Bradford]

Hi, I have this Ludwig snare, but i have yet to see a picture that can identify the year, the mechanism for the snare is different than any i have seen, if anyone can help out that would be awesome:)

this is where the picture is located. i tried to post more pics but it was giving me troubles.
its 10 lug, i believe a supraphonic, and the dampener is the turning kind, not the baseball bat type,

thanks for your help

Start with this brochure. You can also email me the picture directly
and I can post it. You must have an earlier round knob version. The badge will tell the answer.

Start with the badge on the drum.

Then look on this page (http://www.vintagesnaredrums.com/ludwig_badges.html)

With the badge identified then you can get closer to the year.

Send me a pick and I can post it

This might help if it's a '60's Supra.
