Gretsch Greatest Hits . . . and Hitters: Mary McClanahan The November 1939 edition of Metronome magazine—which, at the time, was the bible of the music business—included seven percussion-related advertisements. Each ad featured a well-known performer promoting a recent product release. This included a full-page Fred Gretsch Manufacturing Company ad featuring Mary McClanahan—the first-ever appearance by a female drummer in a major percussion company ad.
