I could be mistaken, but I think that is a Modern Combo outfit. What are the shell sizes?

I used old Slingerland catologs to determine the vintage and style of these drums so I guess I am not real sure. They have a 20" kick, 10" and 13" top toms...16" floor tom 14" chrome snare. The badges start with #106

Well the tom setup is Modern Combo, but that kit is cataloged with an 18" bass drum. We've been discussing one of those sets here:

I'm pretty sure our Slingerland guys here could help. What color are the badges, and what city is on them?

I'm thinking Modern Combo also.... the 20 inch bass drum is a cataloged option.

Might be closer to an 1973 issue by the serial numbers...

And the Modern Combo wasn't offered after 1973 anyhow.

They are silver badges and they are "Niles" I have had them for 31 years the reason I know this is because I married them, they were my wifes set. She said that 1973 could be right. Any help identifing them would be appreciated.
