Is this a 1967 6 1/2 x 14 Acrolite or a repro with a keystone ?

Not enough info in the photo, looks to be a late-Chicago or Monroe badge, so it could just be a recent (1983+) Supra that someone put bowtie lugs on.

Are there any signs of Imperial lug 'shadows' on the shell?

like bermuda mentioned, hard to tell. looks newer though. they had a anniversary model in 84 that were large badges like that. they were chicago issues with no serial numbers and with bowties. usually see those in the 5 inch version though...

Is is Ludalloy? I think they also make a steel version like that. I have one of the Anniversary issues in Ludalloy that looks like that one.

I got mine from a Cl add. A guy had bought a bunch of stuff at a estate sell and there was some drum equipment. I got the snare, bunch of old hardware, my Slingerland Bass drum, A vintage A Zildjian set, basically someones trap case and it's contents. From what I have found out on here it must have come with one of the Anniversary kits in 84 or 5. Mine had a round blue Ludalloy sticker inside. Does yours?

1984 if the badge says Chicago instead of Monroe. In 84' before they left Chicago, they used the large keystone badge that would later say, Monroe on the bottom. I had the 5"x14 version of your drum. Nice drums. Not a whole lot of them around.

Too many great drums to list here!
