I love this type of thing especially regarding old Ludwig. A long time ago I found a couple cool videos of people working in the factory but I wasnt able to find it when I looked recently. Thanks for sharing the pics.

I had all of those bookmarked. Just checked and they are gone. Wow. That was some really neat footage. Hope they will return somehow. They were done in the Chicago plant in 1964 I think.

once the brass ceases to glitter, and the drum looses its luster, and the stage remains dark, all you have left is the timbre of family.

Thanx for posting those! I've owned a lot of WFL drums over the years. It's interesting to see the faces of some of the people who might have worked on drums that I've owned, or played.

Cool! :D

John

Too many great drums to list here!
