Vintage 1950's Atlas MS-12C microphone floor stand MS-10C MS-11C Shure Turner

Description: Hello and welcome to The House of Chrome. You are looking at a older 1950's era Atlas MS-12C "Standard" microphone floor stand built in Brooklyn, NY and was the entry level model in the Atlas Corp line up. It has the unique two tier "waterfall" cast iron painted base with dual chrome adjustable risers. The MS-12C was a high quality, rugged build and was sold by Atlas for several decades and is still being sold today though the new ones I believe are made in China. This is the 1st generation American model. Pic # 2 is from an old 1950's era Atlas catalog showing this very mic stand and it's basic characteristics. The MS-12C had a classic deco design and was very popular until that preference faded out around the late 1950's. You don't see too many of these early MS-12C models around. The MS-12C is appx 12 pounds in weight and had an adjustable height of 35 inches low to 65 inches tall giving you more than enough height to work with. I'm not going to sugar coat this example. It does shows some wear but it's still in very good overall condition and will make a great stand for just about any situation or older mic you have. These stands are very tough and made much better than most stands sold today. The chrome on the upper riser has just a few scratches. The lower chrome riser is just a little bit rougher and the original Atlas decal is mostly gone from wear. The clutch mechanism to lower the top riser works accordingly and in great condition. The cast iron base is in pretty decent shape too but there are tiny spots of wear. The original black paint is pretty nice otherwise. The bottom of the base shows very lite rust stains. The 3 original felt pads show lite wear. This stand will accept any screw on mic or mic clip you have. Overall this stand is an easy 7 on a scale of 1 - 10. I'm very picky though. Others would probably find it nicer or worse. Due to recent price increases at the Postal Service I cannot ship this for any less than stated. I do combine shipping which will save a lot of money if you plane on buying multiple items. As with all my vintage microphones and stands... I can promise you will be happy with it for the price paid. If not...I have a no hassle return policy. The return shipping will be on you as I believe that's fair but the purchase price would be refunded. Simply return in the same nice condition...period. Check my rating. INTERNATIONAL BUYERS are welcome as well. BUYER MUST PAY WITHIN 24 HOURS or will lose rights to this item, unpaid item report will be filed and will be re-listed. If you don't intend on buying this...do not commit to buy please. Domestic buyer will get priority shipping. If you have any questions feel free to ask and...thanks for looking.
