Mystery Drum



Michael Peck <pierrecordon@hotmail.com>

Hi, I was just wondering if you could give me any clue on identifying the era (late 1800's) and/or brand of this drum?

It doesn't have any writing or logo on it to help me identify it. It measures 16.5" x 5" with plenty of stenciled designs throughout the hoops and the shell (which is also wood, not brass)

The snare wires are made up of some sort of cloth/string type material.

Thanks in advance if you can lead me in a direction.
