Title:
DUMB Drum Cover
Description:
Founded in 1906 at Trinity College, the organization now called the Duke University Marching Band (DUMB) has played an important role in the Duke athletic experience, particularly basketball and football. This drum head was used in the 1958 Orange Bowl in Miami, Florida, between Duke and the University of Oklahoma. It was ruptured during practice and signed by drum corps members. In recent years, the Duke Band has added a pre-season band camp and continues to gain recognition throughout the Atlantic Coast Conference.
