Thats what the badge says. I thought it was an older badge but nothing seems really authoritative. I guess it is possible it is not an original badge but I doubt it. it looks a lot like this one from 1940 but lugs are different

What era are the lugs on my drum from? A magnet wont stick to them. All of the WFL snares I can find on line have different ones.
I am trying to decide whether to keep and restore...or sell. I genuinely think somebody else could do a better job with it so I may not keep. It sounds really nice but it is older than I thought and probably more of a relic than I would want my 14 year old banging on.
I actually like the weathered surface and everything else would clean up pretty well. My instinct says that if I want to sell it, I should not monkey with it at all. It seems m there is a certain amount of discretion involved so the buyer would prefer to make that call. Any opinions on that?
Any ballpark on what this would go for? I cant seem to figure out which model it is.
Thanks for all your help, I am sort of new at this and revisiting a childhood hobby.
