Our expert's notes

King George's (Colin Firth) broadcast microphone from Tom Hooper's Oscar®-winning biopic The King's Speech. King George VI used his microphone to inform the British public of the declaration of war with Germany, while being supported by his speech therapist, Lionel Logue (Geoffrey Rush).

The vintage octagonal spring-suspended microphone, made by M.R. Supplies of London, is constructed from metal and hung from a hoop via four springs; a hole in the top of the hoop was used to suspend it from a rod above the speaker. The surface is pitted with distinct black marks that screen match the movie's pivotal final scene. The device remains in very good condition. However, the springs have stretched over time and some appear to have been replaced. Dimensions: 26 cm x 23 cm x 5.5 cm (10 1/4" x 9" x 2 1/4")
