When I click to enlarge the image the result is an image that is not that much larger than the thumb nail. My son has a drum with the same badge. I would like to see larger and more images. What I can see looks interesting.

Can you send me the original image so I can size it correctly?

It looks to me as a 1930's Ludwig & Ludwig Super Ludwig. Possibly with a "Full Dress" option. Larger pics would help...

Well, what it is, is a rare snare finish.

The drum is a a Super-Ludwig Super Sensitive in WMP (White Marine Pearl)

You have what is called Flash Pearl Decorations. Listed as #250-3 in the catalog as the two color combination. Also called "Full Dress"

There were four splash pearls at the time including silver, red, gold and green.

I have only seen a few of these and not many snare drums, so this drum is on the rare side.

I use the term "rare" in this case, because not many are around and if all of the decorations are in place, you have one complete snare drum.

I believe Rich K. has a Leedy full dress in his collection

Look at the 38 catalog on this page

Are you selling the drum?

Yes, this drum will be for sale. It is in good shape. A few nicks and scrapes.
