Default help ID an old carbon microphone

I have one here. It's (I'm told) the microphone for a Victor RE57
combination
radio/phonograph/recorder, dating from 1930-31. My RE57 is a TRF radio
with capability (as implied) to play 78s and record on blank disks. I got
my mic on the 'bay for this radio.
You may find a market for these often-missing mics on
rec.antiques.radio+phono.
Cheers
Nelson

...see photos at: www.nyx.net/~wboas/mic.html

Only mark on this is the number `28' on the back,
and inside, on the cord `Kellogg S.& S. Co No. 56363 Cord'

Any ideas on its era, equipment, etc...appreciated.
