I think before 1964 or so Slingerland toms did not have badges but the snares and bass drums did.
Good Slingerland "Club Date" Find!-Need help from all you Slingerland Guys
The Set O Matic looks to be the later version.. Does the badge on it say Patented, or Pat Pending?.. also the mount is reversed at the ball...
Cheers

Ok, but the FT is stamped 1966, see attached photo. Maybe I just need to look closer for a filled vent hole.

There's no stamp on the Set O Matic, at least on the top. I'll take it off again tomorrow and see if there's a stamp on the bottom.
"mount is reversed?" Do you mean the T screw of the BD tom mount should face away from the drummer?
Thanks for the input, fellas!

Re the T screw... yes to the front... Re the Patented/ Pending it's on the top of the BD mount under the Black Slingerland Plasticized insert...
