A Leedy 4Г—14 вЂњEliteвЂќ Professional snare drum, with gold/nickel-engraved shell, circa 1920вЂ™s. Many vintage drummers like the full-bodied tonal range of highs and lows these brass-shelled drums have to offer.ДЄdditional factors that determine the collectible appeal and value of a vintage drum are: rarity, historic significance (for example, whether the drum is an expression of the times that produced it), physical condition, preservation of originality, and marketplace trends. Vintage metal drums also have their own distinctive appeal. This richness of tone quality is a large part of their attraction. That вЂњnice, warmвЂќ sound you describe is a typical characteristic of many vintage wood drums. The two woods can be mistaken for one another due to their similar reddish-brown color. Slingerland produced walnut shells only during the 1930s. IвЂ™ve also seen вЂњMPвЂќ used on some drums.ДЄlthough you speculated in your letter that the drumвЂ™s inner ply might be made of walnut, since the drum was manufactured in the 1950s, the inner ply would be African ripple mahogany. At times, вЂњMвЂќ was used to designate a marine pearl finish, but at other times, вЂњPвЂќ was used, as well. After doing research and also recalling the Slingerland drums IвЂ™ve personally handled over the years, it seems that SlingerlandвЂ™s use of letter symbols varied over the span of the companyвЂ™s manufacturing history. The letter вЂњMвЂќ is one of the symbols Slingerland used for assembly-line purposes. 14, 1958вЂќ indicates the date your drum was manufactured. My ballpark estimate would be $100 to $150.ДЄbout the stamping inside the shell: вЂњOct. Having some photos or a more detailed description of your snare drum and its condition would make it easier to pinpoint its exact value. The Slingerland Radio King has long been in the limelight, but a drum need not be such a classic model in order to qualify as a collectible. I Know itвЂ™s not a Radio King, but I was wondering if it is a collectorвЂ™s item, and how much it might be worth.ДЄ 1920вЂ™s-era Leedy bass drum, before and after re-conditioning I refinished the drum and fitted it with new heads and a strainer. 14, 1958вЂќ with an вЂњMвЂќ next to it is stamped on the inside. It has a maple outer shell and what looks like a walnut inner shell. The drums are junk except for the snare, which is a 6вЂ™/2вЂі-deep Slingerland. I recently purchased an old drumset for $10 at a yard sale. HereвЂ™s the original question, and NedвЂ™s response: NedвЂ™s answer to a recent question was so comprehensive that we felt it should be presented as a column unto itself. As a result, many questions regarding vintage drums have been directed to Ned via MDвЂ™s вЂњItвЂ™s QuestionableвЂќ department. He was the focus of a feature slot in the March вЂ™90 issue of MD, and is an acknowledged authority on the subject of vintage drum equipment.
