Thanks Calfskin for your lecture in Tromsa historical evolution.
I am a bit surprised that this might be a Beverly parade snare.
The seller I bought this snare from now also sells a bass drum. I am not sure if they have the same origin / are matching, but if so it might help IDing my snare.
What do you all think? Does this support Beverly?
