Abstract: A tape position indicator embodied in a cassette of the type that incorporates a casing which houses a pair of spools and a magnetic tape extending between the spools. The indicator is associated with at least one of the spools and it incorporates at least one indicia carrying element that moves through a portion of a revolution in response to a predetermined number of revolutions being made by the associated spool during transport of the tape from one of the spools to the other. The indicia carried by the element is displayed through a window in one or the other or both sides of the cassette casing and hence provides for an indication of the number of revolutions made by the cassette spools.
