I was cleaning out some junk and came across this yellow thing. I realized that you don't see them anymore even though they were once a common household item. Curious about how much of an unknown this is today, i will ask, do you recognize what the yellow object in the photo is? I know Ghost and a number of others have used them and know what it is.

I've seen that but it's been ages. Is it some kind of spacer? :p

It also reminds me of something you'd shoot from a Nerf gun, lol. :p

I thought you would recognize it right off at least from having seen then sitting around.

It is possible to view it's use as a type of spacer.

Yes it is for adapting a 45 rpm record so that it will play on a 33 1/3 spindle.

My record player adapter is black. Black as the night.....

It is probably a permanent one that stays with the record player as opposed to snapping into the 45 and traveling around with it.

Let me keep digging and i'll see if i can pull out any 16 rpm records then it will have to be cylinders after that.
