It looks just like a Telefunken U-47.

Telefunken U47 (aka Neumann U47) was THE microphone favored by Frank Sinatra for its exceptional midrange clarity for his vocals.

Fun fact...
Jim Morrison was a huge fan of Sinatra and when the Doors walked into Sunset Sound to record their first album, he spotted a U47 as the vocal mic.

IIRC, The Beatles also used a U47 at some point in their recordings.

Telefunken were very good...but no sale on the U-47 here I think.
