Question: vintage snare wires

So I bought this 70's snaredrum today. Not the best in the world, but was a very fair price. One thing though, the snare wires are just about ruined. I have a couple of fresh new ones ready for action, but these are contemporary models and do not fit the build of this drum's hardware. So, my question is: does anyone know where I can buy a new set of wires of the type as seen on the pictures? The wires are attached to the strainer by means of a screw that goes through the tube-like ends of the wires.

1. The ends of the wires.

2. The screw that goes through it.

3. When equipped.

I can't view the pics, links don't work.
 
Any model / brand. Do you have a link to the vintage puresound ones that fit? I have not found any Puresounds that fit.
