The club date style lug drums are not Kent . Or at least not US made Kent drums . Check the inside of the bass drum and US Kent drums . There is a good chance they have an ink stamp . If so I am guessing 67 .

FWIW, I had a 22,13,14x14 Kent set in champagne all with center lugs. I gave it to my nephew who still has it. I gave him a metal snare and kept the matching 8-lug Kent champagne snare drum. Some had date stamps, 69 I think. They were two ply maple. Flat bearing edges on some drums and lots of glue inside (quality control wasn't great).
I found a pic of the snare, somewhere I have the set as it was before I sent it to him.

A date stamp of 1967 would be my guess, as well. Especially with the metal bass hoop.

How strange that the seller used another picture to represent the snare drum, but had an actual 8 lug snare.
I'm guessing the original kit was the bass, 13" tom and 8 lug snare. Over the years someone added another 12" tom and the floor tom. I've never seen a 20" bass drum with steel tom tom hoops.
