Disclosed is an improved reel support for rotating reels in a magnetic tape cassette inserted in a magnetic tape recording-and-playing apparatus. The reel support is a resin mold, and it comprises a support stage having a reel post and blades integrally connected to and standing upright from the support stage. The upright blades extend in the longitudinal slots made in the circumference of the upright reel post. Each upright blade has a nail formed on its tip end, partially appearing from the circumference of the upright reel post to the extent of being caught by a selected projection in the indented-aperture of either reel. Each longitudinal slot has a stepwise indent formed on one side facing the tail side of the nail of the blade, thus permitting the corner of the nail to be engaged with the stepwise indent of the one side of the longitudinal slot when the blade is yieldingly bent as a counter action to the pushing of the confronting projection.
