i own a  Ragtime Fabrizio, aka The Tiny Tim.

it's obviously a one-off, because  none of my phono friends nor i have  
never seen another one, but it's  one of my favorite pieces of phono  
ephemera.

it's a small  semi-human figure made of cardboard and semi-hard rubber,  
mounted to  a strange mechanism, which sits on the motorboard of a disc   
phonograph and connects to the spinning turntable via an idler  wheel.

the figure itself is quite comical, pear-shaped, male and  chrome-domed  
with a zany fringe of hair - and wearing granny  glasses.



Peter,
That figure sounds like it dances just like my Siam Soo.   Can you put them 
both on the same turntable and have them dance  together?
