OLD GRAMOPHONE I bought

[Gramm]

Hello everybody,

I bought this old gramophone and it is my first,found it real cheap.I could not afford an expensive one so thought to get it.Well it looks like it was made in somebodies basement.Could somebody tell me if you can give me any info about this?I will fix the wood on the case,clean it well repair the wood,oil it,then I must find red paper or faux leather to get the box red again.

Mechanism works,but parts look so cheap.I paid around 45 euro post included.I got 5 records and a box of needles.Hope a good deal for its condition.Handle is complete made of iron.

Kind of did not expect so bad condition.Any suggestions will be of great help.
