Hi,

I was wondering if anyone recognizes this Ludwig logo (on a bell lyra). I'm trying to figure out what era this instrument is from, but it doesn't seem to match any of the catalogs that I've looked at. My first guess would have been 1920s, but its hard to tell for sure.

If anyone has any ideas, I'd be very appreciative.

Thanks!

Vincent

Perfect, thank you! That's exactly it.

I guess that means it was probably made by the Leedy folks in Elkhart. Think I'll hold out for a Leedy version.

Thanks again!
