The middle school I went to had one of these in the back room.

It wouldn't be playable, but it would be collectable. You could sell this to someone for a bit just because it's a vintage Luddy.

I'll let one of the experts to really go into detail.

It's a 6 lug drum with a thinner shell than the Black Beauties and 8-10 lug drums of that era... it's collectable, about 200 bucks would be top dollar for now...

BUT... at the same site, they have an acrolite listed:

it seems like that might be a good site to check out from time to time... thanks for the tip!

Does the 20's even have a throw-off?

Yeah, but not a very good one! I wish they showed the picture o the throw-off in that add... I'm looking for a functional one from that era.
