According to this website, it's a Gretsch. http://www.hi-net.ne.jp/~samasa/gretsch.htmScroll to the last drum. Looks like the same drum to me.It has a Duplex strainer, yes. But many drums did back then.Is the inside silver?Did research on the artists name Ivar Asbjorn Sverre (looks like an S), found nothing, most likely a local unknown artist.
Sure does doesn't it!! I didn't see any paint inside looking through the snare side head..It looked pretty old inside though.
Ya, I didn't find out anything on the artist either.
Thanks,Ed
