VERY RARE “CONCETRUM” SNARE DRUM. 1920′s/30′s?

mannings — Thu, 21 Oct 2010 19:54:21 +0000

Here is a very rare early snare drum. It is a single head design, with a top snare. I am not sure if it is complete, the tension bolts look like they are in the wrong place, but do not fit the unused holes in the top rim. The bottom rim is fixed (glued), and looks like it always has been. The very worn transfer label reads ” W.C RODWELL & Co LTD – CONSETRUM (TRADE MARK)”. Around the middle of the drum in the label, i think it says “BARROW IN FURNESS”.

This is an highly unusual snare drum.

Price = £25.
