Hi, I just bought 2 old Shure PA columns, you know, the heavy 5
footers. I was told they are from the 1960's. They look older than the
Shure columns i've seen on eBay lately. Mine do not have a silver line
running down the middle of them from top to bottom.

They are model SR103, and the plate has two wattages listed, 78 and
34. Was that for when there were more than two columns wired together?

Anyway, my question is... what exactly do I have here? I've spent a
day on Google and haven't found much, except when I searched on
"VocalMaster". Mine do not say VocalMaster on the front or on the
plate, though. And it seems like people rip VocalMaster PA systems
anyway.

Any info you can give me would help. And a manual or web address with
similiar info would be awesome. Is there any way to determine their
age?

My plan, unless they have great value, is to add a 1/4 plug, and use
them with a head for my Fender Strat. But I don't want to mess with
them if they are rare or something, not because of value but because I
have a thing about keeping rare, vintage things in their original
state.

Thanks a lot!
