I read a copy of the book a few years ago and was surprised by the old black and white picture (early 1900's) of German Catch and Throw Artist Anita Bartling bouncing balls off of a Sonor snare drum. She's quoted: "I already have the third drum from your company and am very satisfied with it. I will always hold your company in high esteem." I realized for this Bartling, my Sonor obsession was meant to be.
