Regina Discs Are Too Small
By Mike Cino

I had purchased a Regina (I guess 8-1/2 inch; that's where the
confusion begins) that came with 23 discs.  A long story, but it was in
a parking lot on a cold night.  I was fumbling with a flashlight trying
to get it going.  It had trouble and I figured it just needed a good
cleaning.  It looked nice, good condition, etc., so I took it.

I cleaned it up and it works fine, but the discs are 8" and are just
short of resting on the top/bottom rollers.  It plays them nicely but
it really looks like they are the wrong diameter discs and should be
1/4" to 1/2" larger.

Any ideas on how to identify them?  They have the proper notch to fit
on the center spindle.  I can send photos if anyone is interested.
Have a Happy New Year!

Thanks,
Mike Cino
