That's an interesting version, I have never seen a green version before, no mention of green ones either in my reference books. Am quite stumped on this one, as far as I was aware they only used red ones, with the exception of the DJ who had black and white ones. Very nice drum though. :)

Hi Kyle ,

 

the green and white drums were the state colours of Saxony and used originally by the Reichsheer and early days of the Wehrmacht along with the SA and Hitler Youth in the Saxony area.

Ah that explains the green then. :)

You learn something new everyday.

 

On the topic of drums, have you ever had the sticks for Hitler Youth drums in the shop?

I am looking for a set for my drums but they are not the most common things.
