I have 2 apparently NOS Microphone Hand Number C3 Microphones. They are marked ZA/CAN.1759. the fabric covering on the cords is like new, and they have PL-55 phone Jacks. Chris wrote the following in response to my question on what they were used for (thanks Chris). "
Microphone, Hand, No.3 is one of those dreaded "Multi-Purpose Part" items.
It's used with lots of equipment from some early wireless sets (No.1 and
11 probably) and various telephones and remote control units. Given the
fact that it's Canadian, an ideal partner for it would be the "Wireless
Remote Control Unit (Canadian)" used with the WS19 and/or WS52, but they
have lots of other applications. Internally it's a standard telephone type carbon microphone with a switch
in series so that it doesn't drain the battery when not in use.".
$20 each plus shipping, or $30 for both plus shipping in one box. For the US, it should fit with lots of packing in a medium flat rate POB ($13). Might get it into a small box with less packing (6).
