Re: [ARSCLIST] RCA pressed labels in the 50s/60s ?
These Seeburg discs are 9 inches in diamater and have
a 2" center hole, where as 45's have 1 1/2" and
78s/LP's have 5/16.
They also play at a very slow 16 2/3 rpm with
aproximately 45 minutes of music per side.
They are played with a .5 mil stylus instead of the
.7/.1 for 45s and lps.
