    Description

    Beautifully and meticulously made by B.D. Evans, this "storyteller" drum is from the late 1980s. Near perfect. There are a few tiny, tiny dings and a couple of tiny paint scrapes where I brushed it against a white will. But they're barely noticeable.
    I played it at monthly men's group meetings and retreats for several years in the late 80s and early 90s. Always kept it either in the Tuxedo bag (when transporting/moving) or on the stand in my home. Lovingly cared for.
    My recollection is that Brad created this drum specifically for people in the men's movement like Robert Bly, Michael Mead (who I know used one in his storytelling sessions at gatherings, retreats and conferences), and others.
    The sound is gorgeous, the craftsmanship impeccable.
    I'm sad to see it leave, but looking forward to having someone else enjoy her tones for themselves and others.
    Shipping
    My plan is to ship it either in the
    Tuxedo bag, or, if the buyer wants, put both inside a box.  If the latter, I'll have to add to the shipping cost for the box and packing it.  I'll include the stand if desired, but would ship it in a separate box.  Buyer's choice.  So...the shipping is kinda uncertain at this point.  I'm not sure whether I can send it by USPS, most likely UPS.  Either way, I'll let the buyer know ASAP after the offer is accepted so the payment will be able to include shipping costs.
