AKG D12 Cardioid Dynamic Microphone 1950s - 1970s classic silver & black

Purchased in London in 1978 as part of a full set of eight AKG dynamic and condenser microphones for studio recording of drums but never ultimately used. Consequently in pristine, unmarked condition as the pictures show and still in the original case

First created in 1953, the D12 as the world's first dynamic cardioid microphone was used in radio stations and recording studios worldwide and brought AKG to international recognition.

Tested and working perfectly.
