Vintage drum sticks thoughts Last viewed: 1 hour ago

Gilnar, are you sure that is a drum stick. It could be some sort of tool. But I really don't know.

Thank you!

I asked my sister, who's schooled in all sorts of floklore and historical stuff and she said it's most likely a picket used for tying up sheafs on the fields. Not sure if I got the translation right on this, as I hardly know what that means even in Czech! But it seems that the mystery is solved and I apologize for messing up this thread with my obviously-not-drumstick :D

Hey all,I have a bunch of vintage drum sticks that where given to me years ago by my stepfather - a whole batch. I believe they are all from the 1920 and 30s. I will post pictures later tonight. They are pretty nice - some of them have ivory tips I believe. I'm afraid to use them - when I was younger I ruined a couple of them then stopped - ha ha. Is there a demand for these? Either way - they are very cool - I'd love to hear people's thoughts about vintage drum sticks. I never really see any around before the 1960s. I'm sure some you have some great ones to show off... let's see some.I'm at work now - I'll post pics later.-Ian

That's interesting about Bruno making bass drum pedals - didn't know that. I would love to see pictures of them. Those Rogers sticks are great. I used to have a couple Ludwig sticks from the sixties that were nice. I played with those though.

Anyone have any idea what these sticks would be worth?

once the brass ceases to glitter, and the drum looses its luster, and the stage remains dark, all you have left is the timbre of family.
