This is called a Polyphon (poly-fawn), and was made in the 1890s. Very high-tech for the times!

    Old stuff is so cool, so much work goes into every little bit and piece

    Lovely. My mother had a tiny jewellery box that worked in the same way.
  • Baffling how people inveteted stuff like this without the internet, phones to contact other knowledgeable folk or even electricity. Do you own anything cooler than that?
