Polyphon

A polyphon playing
A Polyphon is a large disk-operated music box. The plectra stick out from the backside of the disk; as the disk rotates they contact a ratchet mechanism that in turn plucks the tines. A large sounding board amplifies the sound. Many interchangeable disks would be available for producing favorite melodies.

Polyphon is a disc-playing music box, a mechanical device first manufactured by the Polyphon Musikwerke, located in Leipzig, Germany. Invented in 1870, full-scale production started around 1897 and continued into the early 1900s. Polyphons were exported all over world and music was supplied for the English, French and German markets, as well as further afield, with music cataloged for the Russian, Polish and Balkan regions. Polyphon is also a record label as registered by German Polyphon Musikwerke AG in 1908. Polyphon handled as Polydor label since 1913 with their trademarks Polyphon Musik and Polyphon Record.
