For your consideration a wonderful 1800s Civil War Era drum. I recently purchased this drum at a local estate sale along with other items from the same period. I am not an expert on drums but I will try to describe this one as best as possible. I was told by the family members of the estate this drum came out of that this drum was used in the Civil War. I could not find any markings of any kind on the drum. The drum measures 16" in diameter and is 8" in width. The catgut on one side has been torn. The black bands around the drum are made of bent wood and are stenciled. The stenciling has faded some. There are a couple of cracks in the wood but they are very minor. There is a mounting devise in the side of the drum to hang it from the players uniform. The center band of the drum is metal. It must be brass or copper as it will not magnetize. I have tried to picture all parts of the drum and I hope this will help you but if you have any questions please feel free to email me and I will gladly answer them. A great addition to any military or musical instrument collection or if you just want to own a great piece of American history. I am selling this item with no reserve. I do accept personal checks but will wait until it clears your bank to ship the item out. Thank you for looking and happy bidding.
