Hitler Youth HJ Drum by Sonor

That's my room ;) Yesterday there was a militaria fair near Bologna.

Thanks for your information about it

No problem :)

Hess trademark/label from catalogues:

(From ebay and various internet pages)

Ernst Hess, Klingenthal, Sachsen:


Hess (Ernst Hess Nachfolger), Klingethal, Sachsen:

Postwar: Hess - Musik, München

Yes, I shouldn't have been so lazy and should have posted some of those too :) In any case the adverts confirm that the drum cannot be from post-1945 because Hess was not producing in Klingenthal/Sachsen then. After the war the company name changed to "Hess Musik" as cemifor shows..
 
A very informative and interesting thread. I have enjoyed reading the facts, and no "I'm the expert here" statements :) However, I have a nice hole in my pocket :)
