1. Gramophone was the name given to the hand-cranked record player of the late 1800s and early 1900s.

2. The first affordable gramophone was produced by Emile Berliner.

3. For only ten dollars people could buy his gramophone.

4. Manufacturer’s instructions specified that users should turn the crank seventy times per minute.

5. In 1925, these hand-cranked machines became obsolete when motor-controlled turntables were introduced.

6. By adjusting the reduction gears on these new motor driven gramophones, new playing speeds became a possibility.

7. Because of the record size and number of revolutions per minute, a full recording of all the movements of a symphony required five 78 RPM discs.

9. By allowing record manufacturers to record more sound on smaller discs, the microgroove 33 1/3 changed the industry forever.

10. Now an entire symphony could be recorded on only one twelve-inch microgroove LP.
