The fact that it bore a clear, correct, intact Vogt factory label inside, across from the percussion hole made it 100% Vogt. The dealear from which I purchased this drum, was not aware of the label when he listed it. When I purchased it, I told him of my "discovery". Guy Schum<br />I recently inherited from family, a fine, collection, of 7 large, pristine, Hitler Youth ceremonial drums, with black and white flame designs and single Hitler Youth ruins, most with straps and hanging devices. Four will be dispersed as loans to military and historical museums around the country in the near future.

Hortsmann Brothers were very similar in design (arrow, circle, arrow) but were enclosed in an oval. Although it is inconclusive, this pattern appears to be more a more rectangular enclosure rather than an oval. This is based on a Caba's United States Military Drums 1845-1865, and a web link to a Vogt drum (apparent) at http://usfolkart.com/product_info.php?products_id=370&osCsid=31ca13db4af96fc4164008c63820a623<BR/><BR/>Wow - these two tack designs are very similar. I'd love to see the pictures you have, however, as you have piqued my curiosity on this matter.<BR/><BR/>Timtcohenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08616588791103689734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-702460502853399807.post-25925463799339210812008-04-21T17:56:00.000-04:002008-04-21T17:56:00.000-04:00I have two pictures that lead me to belive that th...I have two pictures that lead me to belive that this drum may be a cut down C.F. Soistmann drum, or Horstmann Brothers. I also have a picture of a Voght tack design if you'd like. I don't mean to sound abrupt or all knowing, so please forgive me if I do. I could go into further detail if you would like.pjdrums96https://www.blogger.com/profile/03024118839221322191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-702460502853399807.post-26707775960161447252008-04-20T10:23:00.000-04:002008-04-20T10:23:00.000-04:00Judging from the tack design, this looks to be a c...Judging from the tack design, this looks to be a cut down Ernest Vogt drum.tcohenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08616588791103689734noreply@blogger.com
