People who have no knowledge about antique phonographs can unwittingly pass a Crapophone or a Frankenphone off as the genuine article.Some people just don't know.edisonplayer PS;It looks like they're using a red plastic Frisbee for a turntable! :lol:

A real honest and true crap-o-phone. It is aged to perfection. If you get tired of playing it, you can fly the Frisbee. See that, duo purpose. :lol: :lol:

Best wishes, Mark

P.S., I don't think it's Frisbee, I think it's the metal bell from a fire alarm. I know, who cares? :-)
