One-track mind, I see. And sick one at that.
Norm, do you have other photos of the item in question?

Humour not UTP'S forte methinks!

No,more delicate than that,you'll be pleased to HEAR

cleaning the horn on a gramophone ?

Is it a vinyl LP cleaner? I could do with one of those.

Well spotted....it's a 78rpm cleaning brush

My parents had loads of 78rpm records when I was growing up. I didn’t listen to them though - they were old fashioned even then. The gramophone we had, had four speeds, 78rpm, 45rpm, 33rpm and 16rpm. I only used the 45 and 33, singles and albums. They had a couple of 16rpm records, they were about the size of a modern cd. I think they were eventually just thrown away, bet they are worth something now.

I think that I deserve a point here for an assist
