SKIRMISHER

Back in those pre-iPod days, which we call “the Dark Ages,” the coolest dudes walked around the city with a portable gramophone in their pocket. Pictured here is the Gipsy, which was so named not because it tends to steal your children or sell you stolen goods, but simply because, well, it was “everywhere.” The 1920s were indeed an innocent time when folks carried disc phonographs wherever they went, and danced like crazy whenever they hear the strains of Beethoven’s “Moonlight” Sonata; everybody knows Beethoven was like P. Diddy back then, often making a random fan scream “BEETHOVEN NATION! Whooo!“

Stumble it!
