1961 Star Snare Drum Parts

This is an early Star snare drum pictured in the 1961 catalog. Many times the badge is missing or someone will put a Slingerland badge on the drum to make it look like a Slingerland snare drum. It has Slingerland style lugs, 3 point strainer and triple flange stick saver hoops. (Slingerland 3-point Strainer pictured for reference)
