But no Flow-Bee?<br /><br />When we were kids (the Dark Ages) we had 45s (I still have over 500) and needed a little yellow plastic adapter to be able to play them on a record player. Some of us (like Jackie) had little record players that played nothing else.<br /><br />JeffJeff Meyersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00093411926030586355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3668066.post-39658860239873421282015-07-18T11:25:00.471-05:002015-07-18T11:25:00.471-05:00No--sadly, it's long gone.

I also remember I had a record flipper thing (also from K-Tel) where you would put your albums into these little slots and (supposedly-- I could never make it happen), at the touch of a finger, you could just flip through your record collection.

"What fool would put their precious records into that piece of junk?" I asked rhetorically (even as an adolescent, I was a demure, soft- spoken sort). I saw my brother and sister exchange looks. You guessed it--one of them had gotten me the record cleaner!<br /><br />/Can't remember if I ever used it.
