United records

Post by DanP58 »

Good morning I recently purchased a United talking machine symphony to restore. I also bought some United records while looking through them. I saw a United record with a standard disc spindle hole. Did United forget to stamp out the bigger hole or did standard disk put on wrong label? Has anybody seen this before? Thanks.

Many years ago when I first found a United record I thought that a 45 adapter would work in the spindle hole.I found out that the United hole was slightly narrower than a 45 hole.edisonplayer.
