Theses are truly special with the 20 in ft but the copper is in serious need of resto !

66/67 downbeat with canister
Super 400 small round knob

once the brass ceases to glitter, and the drum looses its luster, and the stage remains dark, all you have left is the timbre of family.

Yea Man, Great drums beauties for sure, only problem, when they start to go, they go...
I know I had the 73 Concorde 11N, ALMOST PERFECT SHAPE....sorry I ever sold them, but they needed to be in a better climate. Climate control is the key, along with clear covering and cleaning ever month. But all in all great drums...

Steve Maxwell has an affinity towards Slingerland copper drums and has (or at least had) quite a few so he may be able to offer some resto hints.

The corrosion happens under the wrap towards the surface. I have a kit with only a few blemishes and there is not much i could do. The copper shines up nice on the surface when polished.
Keep fixing them up...
