Members Mikeo Posted October 29, 2015 Members Share Posted October 29, 2015 Very cool, very sweet. Some of those mics look not much more than what I you see in O Brother Where Art Though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil O'Keefe Posted October 29, 2015 Author Share Posted October 29, 2015 My great-uncle had a room in his attic when I was a kid that was filled with old telephone equipment, which he had collected from his days as a telephone company manager in the early to mid 20th century. It kind of reminds me of this guy's collection, although the Paquette collection has a lot more stuff in it, and isn't limited to telephony equipment. I wish I had studied the microphones of those old units in Unk's collection better, but that was really before I was interested in any of that.
