Interesting...I have always wondered if HMV sold an equivelent model to the RCA large spindle 45 players so common in USA. I can't say I've ever seen an HMV like this- either real or in advertising, here in Australia, where we seem to have had a normal sized spindle right from the onset of the microgroove era, with a small flat black plastic adaptor being provided with turntables starting in the mid 60s.
I'd be very interested in seeing any original advertising or machines manufactured/marketed in UK using this format myself. Particularly by HMV.
