In English, kinda.

Funnel gigantic - Grammophon

Inn of Dutch in an urigen stood this large Grammophon for years to the
closing.  The heavy wood box is 28cm high and 47cm extend deep and with
funnel, it has a total height of 82cm.Interessantes design, u. a. with large
Label (Edison home phonograph), brass columns at the corners and pretty
stop-arm.  The Grammophon has at some places something flight rust and the
brass parts are einbi?chen dull and bluntly yet one can it certainly again
aufpolieren.  Through the flashbulb, it causes is more shining than it in
the original.  It functions however flawlessly!  By request I put cost-free
a filled needle can and 3 shellac disk in addition.  It can be picked up
however also sent obviously good and certainly of me packed.

In the English language there is a tradition for applying the adjective
"Dutch" to an inferior substitute. (Dutch metal= imitation gold leaf, Dutch
Concert= bad music, Dutch Courage= Liquor).  Perhaps "Dutch Edison" might be
a new term for these pieces of crap.
