Apart from T-30 mics.... and Corn Flakes...I've also got a pair of unissued R-14 receivers by Kelloggs, each individually packed in a cylindrical "pill box".

Mint in box is getting harder and harder to find. I remember only a couple years ago that throat mics were all over the place mint in box. Now they're much harder to find. Great find!
