- Lot Description
19TH C. OHIO FIRE COMPANY PARADE DRUM An 19th century American snare drum with period sheepskin heads, original hemp ropes and leather tensioners, 16 1/2 in. H x 16 1/2 in. diameter, and a pair of period drumsticks, presumably original to the drum. Probably made in the 1830s, based on construction and form, but later refitted (1860s?) with brass strainer and snares. Red-painted rims and varnished, natural wood shell decorated in front with a red and gold-painted 12-point star or sun, flanked by the letter 'E' and 'C', most likely for "Engine Company." This drum has a Metamora, Ohio provenance and it is likely that it was used as the parade drum for a volunteer engine or fire company in that or some other nearby town. Although constructed in the same manner as military drums, this drum is a rare example of those used by fire companies when they paraded, often wearing the painted hats or helmets so coveted by collectors today.All lots are sold "AS IS" The condition of lots can vary widely and are unlikely to be in a perfect condition. *No credit card payments will be accepted for silver, gold, or jewelry from buyers that have not purchased from our gallery in the past.
