This is just awesome.

Put that wax cylinder record in a buried time capsule to be opened in 100 years just to mess with the future population. 🤣🤣

"It just draws the sound on this wax so you can listen to it later" ahh, of course.

Imagine playing this at some great gatsby party in the 1920s 😂

How did they even discover this type of contraption?

My grandparents paid to "put their voice on wax" as they called it back then, way back in the 1930s. And they did it by speaking into the horn and it recorded them speaking.

Seriously, I thought the rec button on my old cassette player was impressive.

Honestly this is more impressive than anything digital

i remember playing with a record player as a kid and when we realized the sound came straight off the needle without speakers hooked up it blew my mind

Imagine time traveling and dropping this in someone’s collection a hundred year ago. Dudes in derby caps instinctively feeling their pants hang lower and lower.

reminds me of this gem
