Hi fellas,Thanks for all your info and input.I bought a set of beat up Ludwigs on Kijii.I could see by the pics there was a '60s Acro. (pic of badge only).Anyway, bought them and this is the snare!!Will post pics when the clean up is done.Thanks again guys,Harry
Now, that's what I call a score! These 6 1/2 10-lug Acros fetch like $800-1,000!
Wow, thats great. Funny how some sellers dont have a clue what they have.
Happy for ya!

Good eye, Harry. Enjoy the snare - Chris
A B/O badge version sold on eBAY last month for $427+. It was one of the infamous New York School Board snares.
very nice snare. Ludwig could of called them Supralites.
Yes! That's the name I like!
I have a pre-serial '63 Acrolite with a smooth shell (non orange peel) and factory crimped snare beds! It was probably one of the first non-prototype Acros.
Hi guys,
Here are some pics of the clean up.
The original head was Ludwig but was shot.
I put on a Remo Vintage 'A' coated.
The drum is in beautiful condition.
Two scuffs on one panel and a few minor ones here and there.
Hope you like the pics.
Thanks again everyone for the info and input.
Cheers,
Harry
Great looking drum Harry...love it!
