ANTIQUE LUDWIG & LUDWIG CHICAGO LARGE DRUM 14.25" tall  x 15.5" diameterFront of Drum reads:  VETERANS OF FOREIGN WARS OF THE UNITED STATESDate Made:  Not exactly sure what time period this is from--Dating the Logo places it approximately around the 1920's, but I could be wrong. 
Measures approximately:   14.25" tall  x  15.5" diameter
Weighs approximately:  almost 7 pounds
Condition:   Still works.  I have no idea if any parts are missing.  Old & dusty.  Scratched & scuffed all over.  Stains on top material that makes the sound (sorry, not sure what this part is called).  On one side bottom, the wood is cracked.  What appears to be drips of paint on perimeter.  The Emblem "Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States" shows cracking and some of the material (paint?) has been chipped off.  Metal parts are rusty.  Strings are still together but feel very dried out & stiff.  Has Not been cleaned.  Needs Cleaning.  Any defects not mentioned but visible in the pictures will be considered as "described".Item sold "AS-IS"--see photos. Please ask questions prior to bidding.  NO REFUNDS.Please make payment within 2 days of Bid Acceptance.  Thank you.I only ship on Fridays.  I give myself a 5 day window to ship.  Shipping Fee's INSIDE & OUTSIDE USA:  I've Over-estimated Shipping & Insurance.  If you want this, let me know and I'll be happy to get you an accurate shipping quote.  My shipping Fee's are a guestimate that reflect a combination of Packaging, Insurance, and eBay Shipping Fee's.  Please know that prices have gone up at the Post Office AND Insurance is costly + eBay now charges Sellers a 9% of Shipping Fee fee for charging the Buyer for shipping.  For example, if I charge you $15.00 for shipping, eBay charges me 9% of $15.00 = $1.35.  These eBay shipping fee's are built into my price.  If I overcharged you on Shipping, Packaging, and eBay Shipping Fee's, I am happy to refund any overage over $5.00 after fee's.Shipping OUTSIDE USA:  I ship UPS Worldwide Saver.  I've over-estimated shipping at the moment because I don't have the time to research--at the moment.  If you want it, I'll research right away--please let me know.  In some cases, Customs may hold your item and make you pay additional fee's before they release the item to you.  Seller is not responsible for these charges and they are not included in any way with the sale.  International Buyers – Please Note: Import duties, taxes, and charges are not included in the item price or shipping cost.
