THIS IS AN ANTIQUE CIVIL WAR DRUM IN GOOD ORIGINAL CONDITION. IT STILL RETAINS THE ORIGINAL RED PAINT ON THE RIMS AND THE SKINS HAVE TWO SMALL REPAIRED TEARS AND ARE STILL TIGHT AND INTACT. THE COTTON HOMESPUN ROPES ARE THE ORIGINAL AND THE BODY IS IN GOOD SHAPE WITH ORIGINAL BRASS TACKS. WHEN YOU LOOK THRU THE AIR VENT THERE IS NO LABEL BUT YOU CAN MAKE OUT A FEW LETTERS WHEN YOU LOOK INSIDE. THE LEATHER TENSIONS APPEAR TO BE OLD REPLACEMENTS WITH ONE ORIGINAL. IT WAS FOUND IN MARYLAND AND WAS MOST LIKELY USED BY THE UNION AND IS PROBABLY NOT CONFEDERATE. NICE EARLY DRUM IN GOOD OVERALL CONDITION. MEASURES: 14″ TALL X 15″ ACROSS.
