You've got the good shell! The one with round-over edges and aluminum lug backing plates. And, you are correct that they are the "unsung heros of brass snares". I currently have three of them and each one sounds great!

I also have one from this era. One of my best snares! $175 is a great price, especially with shipping included.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the black/silver badge from the 70's?
it was a b/w photo. I removed it to avoid confusion, happy to send full color pics via email.
