Marlon Brando’s conga drum to beat $2,500?

Nate D Sanders is selling a conga drum invented (and patented) by actor Marlon Brando.

Brando conga drum

Marlon Brando loved conga drums 

The unusual lot features an array of wires that allow the drummer to raise and lower the pitch.

Brando (1924-2004) was a lifelong fan of the conga drum and used to play regularly with other musicians.

The patent was actually filed relatively recently, in 2002.

It’s expected to sell for in excess of $2,500 when it crosses the block in a memorabilia sale on April 27.
