“Nirona” Toy Gramophone

“Nirona” Toy Gramophone

Categories: Items of interest

This is a nice example of one of the many tin-plate toy gramophones produced in Germany in the early 1920s. probably the best known name is “Bing” from, I believe, the Bingwerke Company but this is a “Nirona” gramophone and a company that is noted for the distinctive shell-shaped horn. Although these toy gramophones do not play well as a rule, this one has a proper gramophone motor marked with the name Nirona.
