Hello to this vintage drum forum !
i`m new to this forum. After passing through several music decades, i went back into time and stopped in the beginning of the last century. Because i started playing brushes again and wanted to get into vintage sounds since a half year, i`m playing a ludwig & ludwig chicago snare drum now. After a while, i`m asking me, if the greengold sparklefinish is original ? The facts, which i found in the vintage drum identification, are:

14" X 4"
"the dance model"
Ludwig & Ludwig Chicago stamp on the hoop (batter-side)
folded over/ soldered bearing edge
build in 1918 or 1919
original steel single flanged hoops
original brass shell
original brass tube lugs
original snarestrainer/ buttend
original clip-over-rim
original tension rods (on the resonant head side)
tha air vent is on the left side of the buttend

Would be nice, if someone can give me an advice.
Thank`s a lot.
