While I no longer own this kit (my eyes are already tearing up!), I wanted to post it for all to see. It was absolutely beautiful and all original, right down to the top/bottom heads. The kit was from 1977 and a time when Slingerland switched from a glass glitter to a confetti finish. Probably would have looked great as a glitter!

Really beautiful. Such a deep red colour!
I'm not Slingerland expert: did Slingerland really build in double spurs for each side on a regular basis?

In the 70s, it became somewhat common. I believe it was the Buddy kit that got the ball rolling on this.
