Look like some kind of clone knock-off of this...
Any model number info on it anywhere?...Hard to tell with just those pictures

Maybe a Shure private label or clone (526 T power desk mic)

My bet is on a Shure 526T clone, except yours has a slider adjustment instead of a pot with a red or black knob. If it is basically the same as the Shure 526T, the one I have is excellent on SSB, but keep the "power mic" adjustment very low. Let your radio adjust the gain instead.

I didn't see a model number anywhere on the mic. The man I bought it from has been in the business since the early 70's and he's never seen one. So I'm guessing it's a clone of some kind?

A look at the cartridge will tell you more.
