Jimi Hendrix Experience Vintage Bolex Microphone From the Estate of Mitch Mitchell W/Letter of Provenance & More - This Bolex microphone was used by the legendary group the Jimi Hendrix Experience and was kept by drummer Mitch Mitchell from the passing of Jimi Hendrix in September, 1970 when Mitchell had many Experience items shipped to the UK in touring trunks. The microphone was kept by Mitchell until his passing in 2008, and was later sold by his widow Dee Mitchell beginning in 2012 to local dealer David Hunt of Hastings Antiques. This particular microphone was sold by Hastings via a 2014 London auction of Entertainment Memorabilia and comes with a letter of provenance from Richard Lumb of Rock Shop n' Gavel, who purchased the microphone as part of a lot of Experience music equipment. The lot will also include: a copy of the purchase invoice along with a copy of the auction catalog documenting the original sale, a copy of a 4-page letter of provenance from David Hunt documenting his relationship and the transactions with Dee Mitchell. Mitch Mitchell was inducted into the Modern Drummer Hall of Fame in 2009 and, along with the Jimi Hendrix Experience, was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1992 and the UK Music Hall of Fame in 2005. All three of the band's studio albums were ranked among the 100 greatest albums of all time by Rolling Stone magazine.
