'68 LeBaron project/parts car near San Francisco



They are called lavalier because they didn't always clip on. In the old days they looped around the neck and came back to the mic, so it was like an upsidedown subway strap around the news/weatherman's neck!

Just in case anyone wants to research its origins, it's correctly spelled
"lavalier." Strangely, the tiny microphones newcasters clip to their
