I've "cross-posted" a very recent post in ARF on what is a very similar device to help us rediscover old technology.

I have identified the "microphone" as a form of "Skindervicken Button" a popular product of the '20's (US) see World Radio History and search that name...

The post is What is This?

Because of the external hardware on the device in the ARF post it may well be a "hummer"...

Thanks! Chas
