And now that mystery is finally laid to rest.That was a step back in the time machine but quoted as longjohn has said"from the horses mouth" the simplistic truth. For Ludwig`s sake...thanks heavens that salesman didn`t rip off the Ludwig bass drum sticker or that would have been history in a very negative way for the Ludwig drum company.
