Jeep,

My understanding is that those mics were originally supplied with RCA 
home-disk-recording units in the 1930s.
That was the mic originally used with the SCR-288/BC-474 an RCA design.

Here's K4CHE's setup at the Gilbert meet a while back.





And, here's my earlier MI-8751 "Swedish Set"





I have a mic.  I think this is the only place they were used by the Army.

73,
AL
