Is this the same band in the picture? The bass drum in the back looks like it could possibly be the same as the picture in the first post. If not then a cool band museum none-the-less.

Mr. F.A. Fitzgerald to Mr. C.G. Conn - "The instruments we use of yours are eminently satisfactory."

Now that's a ringing endorsement!

Not quite up to the Tony the Tiger, "They'rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrre - GREAT!"
