They are Georg Neumann's CMV 563 system microphones, with what appears to be an elongated M7 capsule section (likely for enhanced rear signal rejection characteristics for live stage performance), manufactured in the Gefell facility - currently the home of Microtech/Gefell.

And as a matter of fact, they're bringing the old original design back, as we speak!

My all-time personal favorite VO/Narration "workhorse" is the Microtech/Gefell UMT-70S, which is a modernized FET (transistorized) version of essentially that same basic microphone. Same M7 capsule, but with solid state electronics, elegantly housed in a more compact "rugged-yet-sleek" form.
