Are you serious? My guess is it would be worth quite a bit. Plenty collect
old mics.


OK, I'm only kidding - a 30s German mic (never mind the make) with 'Hands
off - private property. A.H.' (or somesuch) on it would be worth a bit of a
punt, would it not? (Better than Chinese 'Wehrmacht Leicas' at any rate! :-)

Right. It's as quiet as the pox doctor's waiting room in here and I'm in the
mood to entertain - so, here's what me 'unattenuated' Norrie looks like (see

Here's what the first track (including set-down) sounds like:

And, as a bonus, a similarly 'unattenuated' track of the incredible Marlene
recorded somewhere around 1929/30 I believe (mit som *sefeer klippink*,
unfortunately):

Incredible innit - wonder if it was a CMV3?


Feeling the need for some noise? Take a look at this bunch of lads
from back home in the Faroes with their modern take on a traditional
tune.
