microphone identification

I have 2 older condensor microphones in my studio and I am not sure what kind they are. I'd say that they are from the 80s and sound really good! I think that I was told that they were Electro-Voice, but without markings, I am not sure. Do any of you know?

Thanks as always!

Can you post a picture in this thread?

They look very much like EV PL-80's to me... not positive.

I think the PL 80s were Dynamic Super Cardioids. Maybe there was a condenser version? THANKS!

I'd say it's an EV PL76A:
