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.

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

Someone suggested they were used with Jefferson-Travis and RCA equipment? If anyone is interested in them, I am open for offers. Thanks.
