Ludwig Canister throne

Posts: 2237 Threads: 272

One of you Vintage Drum Gurus sent me a canister throne top to reupholster. I have been on a mission to find the correct catches for this. I found the exact Brass Draw Catch for it, but I cant find the hook catch for it. I did find something that might work though. Does anyone have one? Here's a few pics of what we're looking for.

There are countless latches, hasps, and catches. If it werent for the badge location you could use two of the draw catches.....The one I found is very similar to the original. It also has the galvinized finish like the original. Ill send it to ya anyway.....
