Vintage 1951 50s Gretsch Round Badge 14” x 21” Cocktail Snare Drum
Impossible to find vintage 50’s cocktail drum, especially in such nice condition! 21” deep. 14” diameter. Round badge. Natural interior. Looks like ink date stamp is from 1951. No Paper tag. Brass chrome hoop (magnet doesn’t stick). This looks like drums in 1950’s Gretsch catalog’s. 8 chrome lugs. Looks to be original rods (missing one washers). Overall, shows light wear with touch of rust. The snare knob adjusts fine. 3 legs, one looks to be chrome, the other two look to be Nickel. (All show tarnish). The leg mounts are presumably Nickel, magnet doesn’t stick. This had a broken calf skin head when I acquired it so I put on a Vintage A head which is a bit tight. (I’d probably go with a “classic” fit or other head meant for the slightly wider Gretsch shells). No extra holes. Only issue is separation of the bottom re-ring at the seam, should be an easy re-glue. Please refer to the photos which are considered a part of the description.
