It comes with quality padded soft cases, which are included in the auction at no extra costs.I would say it dates back to about 1965 but I'm not sure, so I provided serial numbers below. The wrap is original psychedelic "Blue Swirl", which changes and reflects light differently depending on your position. The wrap is perfectly tight around the shell on all the 3 drums.The kit has been professionally restored, bass drum hoops repainted, front bass drum head recreated with original logo. It looks gorgeous, it sounds boomy, it can span from jazz, blues to hard rock, and the rail mount works! Yes, it really works, it has been the only rail mount I came across which stays up with no effort. All the Ludwig and Gretsch ones I have had were miserable and I always had to opt for a second snare stand for the tom. Not this one, it works and also lets the tom vibrate nicely so the sound doesn't get dampened.Serial numbers are:Tom: 12x8 inches, serial 164519. Floor tom: 16x16, serial 161846Bass drum: 20x14, serial 161723SAMPLESUnfortunately the samples below come from demo or bootlegs, so the full sound is not captured. However, they are good enough to understand how boomy or jazzy this kit can go:http://www.drumgarage.net/share/slingerlandhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HW99ba4GQkM
