Hi
I am a vintage clothing dealer and I know absolutely nothing about drums (though I do like drummers!). However, I was at an auction in Southern Maine a few months ago and couldn't resist buying this older Ludwig bass drum.
I'm planning on listing it on eBay, but would like to know a little more about it before I do so. In doing some research for the piece, I came across this site, and it seemed like a good place to get a clue about what I have.
I do know it's a bass drum, that it lacks the badges, and that the heads (what are left of them) are cowhide. Otherwise, I am completely in the dark.
Any insight about the age and history of this drum would be greatly appreciated, as would any suggestions about what type of information I should include in my description.
