From 1937 this is a WFL 7 (Deep) x 15 Lyre badge snare. Nickel over aluminum shell with brass hoops. This was a one year production drum, and one of the first aluminum snares ever made! It shows signs of use with scratches, pitting, and some rust throughout. Nickel is flaking in some areas. Shell has lots of small dents/dimples. It is still in round. Throw off is 100% functioning. Both hoops have very slight warping. Heads still seat and tune fine. Heads and wires show wear, but are playable. Wires are bent. See the pictures for more details!
