Garret,

That is a Columbia Mignon, not a common machine.

I finally found a use for one of my high school Spanish class dialogs: El tocadiscos es descompuesto...

El tocadiscos es descompuesto... Translation: The record player is broken...

I don't know why they thought that would be an important phrase to learn... every once in awhile I will repeat it to a Latino person and it usually is good for a laugh...
