Auctioneer's description reads "Cage containing three miniature wine up gramophones".
Why are the poor little things in a cage? Do they bite?
Note the brown crocodile one at the back. The same as the one I posted recently.

Everyone knows that wined-up gramophones become very aggressive and therefore need to be confined in their cages.

It must be true! The 2 older machines have sensed the other machine is an imposter and taken a few bites out of its horn.
