1950s John Grey & Sons Pancake Snare Drum 14” Made in England

Vintage John Grey & Sons Pancake Snare 14″ Model 500 Made in England

Lovely vintage pancake snare drum made in England by John Grey & Sons.

I’ve never seen another so quite rare I’d say.

Good vintage condition. The vellum will need replacing or fixed. The rest looks pretty good for its age.
