"Johnny’s Mic", the Shure microphone that sat on the
desk of Johnny Carson during "The Tonight Show"
from 1962 to the early 1980’s. 

The mic was sold at a Heritage Galleries auction in
Dallas in 2005 for over $50,000 to an anonymous
collector, and it’s likely still in a private collection,
making it a prized piece of television history rather
than being publicly displayed.
