Description

Found in an estate with many 78 RPM in the Jazz genre, big band, bop, and similar styles.  This one was found in a 12" binder.  Blue Note 19, with the yellow, blue and white (YBW) label, and with two addresses on the label:  10 W. 47th St. NYC address on Side A label, and 235 7th Ave, NYC on Side B label.  Discogs describes this as a "Repress", although discogs does not list a First Issue, and this is the earliest date of the three listing, all called Repress.  This one is dated 1940, another YBW at 1941, and a BW at 1943. Side B is, Tell Your Story.  There are a lot of visible deep clean grooves seen but overlain with a fair number of visible light scratch or scuff marks, not feelable.  There is a small chp on Side B run-in, not reaching the grooves.  I will visually grade this as VG+, recognizing this is an 80+ year shellac and I grade these differently than vinyl LPs.  With a similar surface in vinyl (clear grooves seen but overlain with a good deal of light scuffing, etc), I would grade the record in the range of G to VG.
