Microphone History:
Bell and Howell were founded in 1907 and primarily made equipment for cinematography. The company name is sometimes abbreviated to B&H.
This cute little crystal microphone was most likely built for them by another microphone company. It is similar to some Shure models, albeit with a different grill and badge.
