Abstract: |
A doll with a simulated wristwatch whose hands can be set to different times and with a phonograph which plays one of twelve sayings that state the time shown by the hands of the watch. The phonograph includes a record with twelve grooves, the grooves having lead-in portions spaced about the periphery of the record. When a cord is pulled to wind a spring motor, the record turns in reverse until it hits a stop, the stop therefore determining which groove will be engaged by the needle when the record is played. The stop can be shifted to choose a different record groove, by turning the hands on the watch, so that the saying which is played always corresponds to the time shown by the watch.
