Two Who-Zits... Ludwig, Goldblatt

[3jakes]

Anyone recognize these 2 items.
I believe the small clamp is stamped Ludwig, so perhaps some kind of drum hardware?

The second is I believe Goldblatt tool co, Kansas City
I know the company now days makes masonry and drywall tools, but I do not recognize this one.

I’d assume your Goldblatt is something like this, but for smaller areas. I was thinking brick grout lines.

I think the Goldblatt is a tuck pointer. I'm no musician but the Ludwig looks like a drumhead clamp.

Thanks for posting the catalogue.
I scrolled through the whole thing & did not see a match.
This tool seems way to small to be used on any kind of mortar joint.

I'm a musician & drummer certainly don't recognize that clamp as any sort of drum hardware... even vintage.

Thing is really old Ludwig kit like 1920s 30s 40s wasn't stamped Ludwig they went by the name WFL - William F Ludwig drum company.

So yeah no clue sorry!

The Ludwig piece is a drum piece. It is a clamp on Bass drum spur. I think it's 1920's ish vintage

Maybe tile? Don't know the history of tile grout, but could imagine it wasn't always done with sponges.
