Civil War Auction
Lot 98:
Description
This original 16″ diameter snare drum. The body, rims, fasteners, transfer Union Eagle and flag appear to be original. We are unsure about the drumheads (skins) and rope. Bottom drum head is a bit off center and has slit. Transfer eagle and flag decal is in very good condition and you can barely feel it to the touch. Condition shows much wear and age. The leather tabs show much age. We looked for a maker on the inside and found none. This drum sides have a great burled wood look.
