Hello!

I believe these are Slingerland wires, but possibly not?? Total length (excluding the extensions) is 13 7/8". Can anyone give their input as to exactly what snare they came off of and age?

Thanks and Merry Christmas![Attachment: 24138]

Radio Kings used the tin strap for the 3-point strainer from about 1940 to 1949.

Look to the bottom of the page for the article on the 3-point strainer by the good Dr. Wenk.............

My guess: 1962-1968 Slingerland Zoomatic, as pictured HERE, with a user modification to add a strap at the other end of the wires as well.

Thank you for the information.

I want to post to sell them on here as I think someone can put them to good use, but have no idea what to ask. Any suggestions?

Thanks
