For a 1950 - 1954 Mahogany snare drum w/Imperial lugs. Anybody got one to sell/trade?
I know I can get a 'similar' one new, but I'd like an original.

For anyone else looking for claws they are still made in steel, brass and nickel.

I usually get them from drum factory direct.

They usually aren't EXACT matches, the seating for the bottom contact point of the tension rod is usually a tiny bit smaller footprint . . . however, it's only noticeable if you hold them side-by-side and look carefully.

For what it's worth, I have used a lot of these claws as replacements for Barry snare drums. Those tension rods typically have a smaller diameter than rods of today. I don't think it would be an issue, but I thought I'd let people know.
