Ahead of its time, or to the side of its time? Check out the innovatively-designed Mister Disc, a little-known Audio-Technica product from 1983. In an era when vinyl was still king, this portable device enabled you to listen to records anywhere--well, anywhere there was a flat, vibration-free surface--by "clipping" it to an LP and plugging some headphones in. Click here to see photos of the thing in action, and images from an instruction manual that looks like it was designed during World War II.

Well, maybe. But the equally portable Dansette (a mono player with a built in speaker - Wikipedia) was more than 30 years old by 1983.
Otherwise known as a "soundburger"
this think is anything but 'little known' and is quite a popular and collectible portable turntable. this was in production for a while and was even imitated by several other manufacturers. the design most likely came from a smaller, more portable turntable from england produced in the 50's. this is more commonly known as the 'sound burger'.
