Modern External Horn Gramophone
Posted: Mon Aug 21, 2017 3:22 am
This is an oddball: a recently manufactured external horn gramophone, by a well known French clock maker (and clearly branded), made with original parts, including soundbox, speed control and motor. Certainly not a crapophone nor a frankenphone. Coincidentally (or not), being advertised by two different sellers in the French Ebay

I have seen others from the same brand for sale over the years, with different case designs but what looks like the same back bracket and soundbox. This indicates that it was a product line and not a one-off. There is a you tube video of one, see

Does anyone know more about these gramophones?
