Ludwig drum co.

is exactly what is on the badge. I'm trying to work/find out how old the shell is that I've just bought

it's a steel shell

Yeah, the internet sucks for Ludwig. I can't help you I'm afraid, I'm trying to find the same thing out about mine, but there's no serial numbers

Given the badge style, and high serial number, I'd have to say it's from the late 80's or newer. My Supra has the b/o badge, it's from 1972.

If it has 10 lugs, it may be a Supra, which is an aluminum shell.

Hope this helps!
