The ones we have are different from that one. That one is an earlier version.....the knurled knob is from the mid-1950's onward, which is the style the three of us have....ok? ok. LoLoLoLo

Is this Gretsch snare worth it?

I have that same snare! Have the matching bass drum too! Cool! Not playable, but definitely a cool display piece!

do you think this is older than 50's, I've never seen that finish before on a drum this old, assuming it is that old. Of course my experience is limited.

I think it could be as old as 1920's....the paint however looks like a recent repaint to me.

Look at the snare drum on the "One-Nighter' set -Vintage Drum Guide-1961
Looks like it to me.

Yeah, looks like the "Jazz Combo outfit snare in tri-tone blue and silver lacquer and chrome." Wonder for how long this set was made.
