A few of the washers around the fifteen nodes where the lugs were attached were marked as Duplex. There is a tag inside indicating that the drum was sold through "C S Radcliffe, Dealer in New and Second Hand Drums, 324 E. Grant Street, Minneapolis, Minnesota"

Mr. KC,

That is one badd a** looking drum.

AND....a big one.

I like it and I bet it sounds thunderous.

I made a 9X18 snare, or I should say I finished it from an abandoned project.

17 is right there.

Enjoying having this drum, although finding the right replacement tension rods looks like it may be a challenge.

I thought that the drum key was pretty interesting. Not sure what the larger hex part is for, but the small square end fits the tension rods perfectly. They are a little smaller than modern tension rods.
