This is a complete Chinese tom tom and mount set from the late 1920's - 30's. As shown in the attached 1923 Ludwig catalog, this Chinese tom tom is the largest of the three mounted Chinese tom tom sold during this period. It has brightly colored scene painted on both heads along with the maker's mark. Drums of this size are very heavy and require a very sturdy mount to hold them in place. The mount offered with this drum is a 1930's WFL universal holder as shown in the 1939 WFL catalog. It clamps securely to the BD counter hoop and has a ratchet for the mounting post to fit into. The mounting post is mounted to the tom with three wood screws. The mounting post  can be articulated 360 degrees along making it easy to get the drum into a good playing position. Both heads are in excellent condition with no holes or missing tacks. There is fading in the center of one of the painted heads. The red paint on the shell is in perfect shape with no extra holes or splits. Drums of this size are extremely rare and difficult to mount. This will make a unique addition to any early 20th century outfit.
