Early 30's due to bead and de luxe name, I think.

Guess capt.wierd stated it correctly. I found this catalogue - although your snare's 'pan cake' type isn't exactly pictured (see page 9 in the 1937 issue):

Hi Raif if you go back around 1932 or so, you'll see it listed as a 14 X 3 1/2 or 15 X 3 1/2
