Hello, Just joined as member because I have aquired an old snare from my father. I have a 14X7 snare drum that was given to my dad as a child from his father. It is mahagany finish with the original ludwig whitecalf top skin. The marking on the rim is the 1920's style "ludwig universal model" inside an oval. It has the original "snappi snares" also. It was in the original canvas ludwig bag which is stamped LUDWIG in stencil form looking letters, the bag has 4 brass snaps for closing, each snap has a cursive capital "L" and USA beneath it. I'm wondering if anyone knows how rare or possibly valuable the drum and case may be. The under skin is also original but is damaged. Thanks and I hope someone will respond if intersted in such a drum' Matt
