It's a 5x14...I'd say 1924-1928, they switched to the stamped "Super Ludwig" in 1929-34 +/-...The early models didn't have the snare guards (didn't exist) 1927 or so is when the snare guard option appeared, I think, don't quote me on that but I'm close...I say this so you can use the "missing snare guards" as a bargaining chip...a set of originals in nickel go for 300.00+, repros are 150.00. Usually the slunk head is the one that is trashed so getting a correct batter head will be easy. Make sure there are no extra holes or any other funny business...600.00 on the great deal low-end side off things...700.00-1000.00 is fair...1200.00 is all of the money if you really want it for your collection...good luck.
