Black Panther wrap was introduced in 1968 along with the mod wraps.  It first appeared in the 1970 Ludwig catalog and was offered throughout the 70s. It’s really a one of a kind wrap. It has this fake leather look to it and, personally, it reminds me of the old Marshall amplifiers which is why I like it.  It is a thin material that is unlike any other wrap used by Ludwig.  The most famous drummer who used this early on was Mitch Mitchell of the Jimi Hendrix Experience.
