This is a late 1960s Ludwig Super Sensitive snare drum. 5x14" aluminum alloy shell, ten Imperial lugs, triple-flanged hoops, and of course, the iconic Super Sensitive snare strainer, designed to minimize snare head choking, and provide consistently beautiful tone and sensitivity across the entire dynamic spectrum of the drum. In proper working order, with moderate-heavy tarnish, dirt, and residue around the drum. The snare wires are made from Wilson synthetic "Performance Plus" tennis racquet  string, to help you up your game!

From the 1967 Ludwig Catalog:

"Pick up the sticks--let them fly off the head. Instantly you know: here is something totally modern in drums, finer than ever in sound and feel. The reason is the Acousti-Perfect seamless all-metal shell developed by Ludwig. Stick rebound is faster, easier; playing is more effortless. From the entire drum head. response is instant, true, undistorted and choke-free at full power. Each tone is sharply defined and fully projected -from whisper to full volume. Here, indeed, is a milestone in the development of a finer drum sound. Finest of drums, the SUPER-SENSITIVE has more exclusive features than any other. Snares extend across the entire drum head, providing full diameter snare vibration. Dual throw-off provides parallel snare action with two complete mechanisms operated by a single control lever. Snares are released from both sides at once moving away from head under constant and even tension. The SUPER-SENSITIVE is the only drum available with six different snare units, changeable in seconds for jazz, concert band or orchestra drumming. The beaded, perfectly round seamless all-metal shell is triple chrome-plated."
