Okay, this is another of my sets, this one I believed to be a 1979 Time Machine set. Now i'm not so sure. 5 ply. All close matching S/N with 406xxx. The TM set basically replaced the Super Rock Kit #51N. All the sizes are the same, as is this one. 14x24/9x13/10x14/16x18. This set has all copper plated hardware from the factory. It is unique. All original heads both sides as far as i can tell. The person I bought it from "thought" it was once owned by Dennis St. John, the great drummer from Neil Diamond's band, among others. I've never been able to prove it..the snare is a 5.5x14, and is a late 90s or early 2000s all copper snare. Thought it looked great with it. So i bought it.
Enjoy!
Here's my '62/'63 Slingerlands. Recently added the '58/'59 Radio King. All thats missing is the new Maxwell cymbal toppers and replace the 22" flat top with a 20" 5 rivet 60's A. New bass hoops really set it off. Serial #2700 on the kick.
I have this vintage Slingerland, Ducco painted, concert bass drum with original hardware and calf skin heads. I'd love to learn more about it.
Just picked these up at the St. Louis drum show this past weekend. 70's COW 80N Buddy Rich set.
Not my photo, it's from the seller. I haven't had time to mess with them yet. Ordered new heads from Aquarian, waiting on their arrival.
I need to locate a couple of cymbal arms (go to my garage 1st, I think I have some), them would like to find a couple of nice Buddy Rich model stands, a Dynamo hi hat, and a Tempo King pedal.

I have two Buddy Rich cymbal stands and one bass drum mounted cymbal arm I could part with if you are interested.
Most recent addition ... I have to scavenge through my parts to get a better mount.

Here is a picture from my drum room, showing some of my Slingerland collection. The marching drum at the top is a 30's Junior Boy Scout, all original including calf heads!
