What mics were used on Bob Dylan's 1961 S/T recording?

I found a few photos from Bob Dylan's 1961 recording session for his S/T album.

One photos shows what appears to be a Neumann U67 for vocals/harp, but the guitar microphone is obscured:

Another photo shows a different microphone on vocals/harp and some SDC on guitar. However, I don't personally recognize either of these microphones. Do you?

Does anyone know any other details about this session? Some quick internet searches did not turn anything up for me.
