Some will think this is some sort of medallion or esoteric symbol. But others will recognize it for it is, for what it enabled. At one time, you had to have this or your plans for a beautiful evening with moonlight and roses would all  be for naught. LOL OK...so go ahead, show your age...Do you ya know what it is? Should be a lot of fun watching the "Young'uns" on GOLO throw out their creative guesses.

Have a Great Saturday and safe weekend!

re:"...Hmmmmmmm... surprised no one has made earrings of of those and sold'em to the aging flower children!..." I thought that was what Janet Jackson wowed us with during her StuperBowl appearance...;)

The other adaptor we don't see frequently is for CD's (somebody may want to blog this) the CD3 size up ring they had to use in the early years before they made the inner ring on the trays standard. You still have to use them today on slot feeds.

My '72 truck had the wire wound coils. Temps would change their length causing you do re-adjust the dial slightly. AM only on it, however thankfully the FM rock station I liked had a sister frequency on the AM dial so I was happy.

I only needed one of the adapters for the platters ONCE; an old John, Paul, George, Ringo platter that went out with their fan club mag.

Why I knew what that was right off the bat... it enabled us to listen to "The Monkees" and such on the portable record player in 1955!

Hmmmmmmm... surprised no one has made earrings of of those and sold'em to the aging flower children!

"Hey, who broke my 'Wipeout' record?!?"

Dude I haven't seen one of these since my yellow one on my PacMan Fever 45!

At Work: Oh, is THAT what they look like? I never really got a good look at one...

It's the thing you put in the middle of your 45 rpm little record so you could play it on a stereo that had a spindle for albums.

There were 8 kids in my family, and the younget always had to sit on the floor and be the knob-turner. Luckily I was third-born. I don't think we HAD a TV when it woulda been my turn.
