Mid-19thC Antique Birdseye Maple Marching Drum & Lignum Vitae Sticks
…… The finish on this antique mid-19th century Birdseye Maple Drum is the original finish, as is the black paint on the rims. It measures 16 ½” in diameter by 11 ¾” tall and as you can see in the close-up photographs it is in perfect condition. Both tight skins are very old and most likely original. The only problem are the missing cross pieces on the bottom skin. Including in the auction are two mid-19th century Lignum Vitae Sticks, one however is broken at the end.
…… There is No reserve on this mid-19th century Birdseye Maple Drum and I guarantee 100% that the high bidder will be more than satisfied with its quality, condition and age, or I will return all their money.
…… Please check back every once in a while. We list everyday and you never know what you might find listed without any reserve.

2012 UPS & USPS PRICE INCREASES
It has recently come to our attention that the shipping costs that the calculator has been providing for our bidders have been higher than normal. We have not changed our shipping department in any way. We strive to make sure that our customers pay close to exact costs as possible. When items are packed and exact costs are figured for the label, any excess costs paid will be refunded. At the beginning of 2012 the shipping cost for UPS Ground increased 4.9% and 4.6% for the Post Office. The shipping calculator pulls its figures directly from UPS and USPS and, unfortunately, these price increases are out of our hands.
As always, we strive for 100% satisfaction and do our best to provide our customers with the best service possible. We encourage you to email or call us or concerns you may have regarding shipping.

… Lisa, or Yaya, is Bill’s youngest daughter, and she is the “Jack-of-all-Trades.” She does anything from answering the phone to solving problems as well as photographing and listing auctions.
… The second Lisa working here, who we call “Big Lisa,” work’s full-time answering the many, never-ending, E-mails and quotes. This is a tedious job, but someone’s gotta do it!
… Up next is our full-time “Gopher”, Richard. He is Lindsey’s husband and is a huge help! He drives the truck to storage and pack & ship as well as running miscellaneous errands.
