New to Home Recording/mic issues

Somewhere back in the cobwebs of my aging brain cells I seem to recall some old mics I had back in the mid 60's that may have been specced that way. Lafayette Radio was a place I frequented back then and I found a catalog which among other fun stuff of the times had microphones and the screenshot below shows that old style old of expressing mic sensitivity.

Dave as well as anyone else from that era might enjoy browsing these catalogs I came across. My first reel to reel tape recorders were Lafayette branded. :D
LAFAYETTE CATALOGS: Lafayette Electronics and Concord Radio

There are even guitars, amps, and other musical instruments in these old catalogs :)

Pretty sure I had one of those $1.95 crystal mics.

Oh man....yes...I had one of those Lafayettte $11.95 mics. Built like a tank!! Weren't they made under other brand names as well?
