Handmikrofon S.M. 325 BS.

[Yuri D.]

This is a microphone that I have seen in photos used with the 5W.S. and in Funksammler's collection. Does anyone have info about it? Does it have any special set that it was issued with?

Not much - according to this, this microphone is from 20, 30-s.

The Stiehlmikrofon was the predecessor of the Hmf.a and as such was used early on with transmitters such as the 100 W.S. and the 5 W.S. You can see one on top of the 100 W.S.:

I think the S.M. 325 Bs is an internal Telefunken number (S.M. being Stiehlmikrofon and BS being Bodenstaendig).

Here's another photo of it being used:
