1928-29 ludwig & ludwig marble pearl family

Posts: 1334 Threads: 235

Hi,

Here’s another family under the Marble Pearl name.

1928-29 LUDWIG & LUDWIG 4 x 14 MARBLE PEARL STANDARD MODEL

1928-29 LUDWIG & LUDWIG 5 x 14 MARBLE PEARL STANDARD MODEL

1928-29 LUDWIG & LUDWIG 5 x 14 MARBLE PEARL SUPER-LUDWIG MODEL

SOME NOTES: Ludwig & Ludwig introduced Marble Pearl in 1928 and per Rob Cook’s book Drum Colors The Rebeats Color Swatch Book this finish was listed from 1928-29, pretty short-lived and very rare. Personally I love the “ugly” finishes from the 1920s-30s.

Enjoy!
