I think it is a Gramophone (partly cos it has a metal badge saying so).
A definition from Google search: The sound recording and playback device invented by Emile Berliner. It consisted of a turntable for a disc record, a sound box mounted on a pivot (allowing the record groove to guide the stylus), and a conical sounding-horn. The first gramophones were hand-driven, but the machinist, Eldridge Johnson (later the founder of the Victor Talking Machine Co.), devised a practical spring-motor for the machine in 1896. Note: although the distinction between the gramophone and phonograph (and the recordings played on them) continued for many years, by the time of the demise of the Edison cylinder in 1929, the term phonograph was regularly used to refer to disc-playing machines I remember learning about this thing during a physics lecture. The music industry was quite interesting back in the day. Maybe the picture is like a brand new one for CDs instead? lol

From what I could read on the page, it's a sort of CD player modeled after a gramophone, which was an invention made by Emile Berliner.

Gramophones are those record players they had in the old days... you know in movies where they have that big bell shaped gold thing where the song comes out? Yeah it's totally old school.

AHH! i got it. i just transfered those japanese words to english by Yahoo's translator.... it's something called "A ベルリナー-type disk record player" (ベルリナー式円盤蓄音機 ) i guess "ベルリナ" was the person that leafyamazaki talked about.
it's really cool. but the only thing i still can't figure out.... how to record? (btw, just look at the other things they have released before, it's funny. LoL  )

I don't think you can record anything WITH it, it just plays stuff. We're studying music in my American Pop Culture class. In the 40s they changed the material that records used to be made out of because it was needed for the war, so they used vinyl instead and had to change the record players. Hence the uselessness of the gramophone. I think. Don't quote me on that.

Oh, that's a really cute cd player!!! Seems like it'd have problems with skipping though.
