This 635 was the more expensive variant of the 630 model mic. The 635 was sold for about 15 years before being discontinued while the 630 was sold well into the late 1970's. The mic is naturally much stronger in the Hi Z setting than the Low Z setting.

You are looking at a highly collectible and rare variant of the 1940's era Electro Voice V-1 "Velocity" Ribbon microphone. The Philco label looks pretty damn nice too. The V-1 sits on it's original yoke / swivel and it works nicely allowing just the right amount of tension and desired angle.
It has a grittier tone that is void of bass so it's good for HAM radio operation and even better as a harp mic. Actually one of the best harp mics a musician could possibly use. No issues. No dents, heavy scratches or fractures.
