Reader comment on item: More Vanished American Words
Submitted by Robert (United States), Jan 17, 2022 at 10:11

45s, 78s, 33s/
These were Records and the numbers reflected the speed, in RPM (Revolution Per Minute). The electrical musical device was the Record Player (before Tape Recordings, or Tapes).
