Please read the Item Description through carefully before deciding to purchase this item. I recommend you pay particular attention to the P&P/ Shipping section & the Condition section.

Here is the original 10 track UK Mono LP/ Album Blossom Time At Ronnie Scott’s by Blossom Dearie from 1966. The front cover states “Blossom Dearie At Ronnie Scott’s Club London”. Housed in a front laminated sleeve & released on Fontana Records, the Catalogue Number is TL 5352. The record itself is housed within a plain inner sleeve. The track listing is On Broadway, When The World Was Young, When In Rome, The Shadow Of Your Smile, Everything I’ve Got Belongs To You, Once Upon A Summertime, I’m Hip, Mad About The Boy, The Shape Of Things & Satin Doll. I assume the package was made in Great Britain for UK release. PLEASE NOTE: In order to show as much detail as possible, some pictures have been merged together to create single images (e.g. different views of the matrix numbers & views of the top & side edges).

Side 1 Matrix: 687392 1L//2?420 1   1   2 (? should be hollow) (12 o’clock)

Side 2 Matrix: 687392 2L ?1 42011 1(? should be hollow) (12 o’clock)

The Matrix Numbers are described using a clock face. The first part is the main body of the Matrix Number. It will be at 6 o’clock if it is located in front of the label with the writing curving away from me at the ends (as I look) and at 12 o’clock if it is located behind the label with the writing curving towards me at the ends (as I look). Other times give a rough idea of where additional parts of the Matrix Number are located, in relation to the main part. It’s not meant to be foolproof, just to give an idea of where the various parts of the matrix are, in relation to each other.

Condition as follows including photographs: The sleeve is in very good condition, due to slight creasing, wear & slight discoloration. There is slight corner wear. The laminate has lifted & split along the top edge of the sleeve. There is a small amount of writing on the back sleeve. The inner sleeve is in very good condition, due to slight creasing, wear & slight discoloration. There is the odd nick here & there. The Vinyl is in very good plus condition. Both sides play through well, with no jumping, skipping or sticking. The overall sound is very good. There is slight surface noise intermittently throughout, mostly in quieter passages & between tracks. It is slightly more noticeable on Side Two than on Side One. I don’t think the sound is invasive & so would not expect it to affect your listening pleasure. I always expect some sound from records of this age & condition. See below for NOTES ON CONDITION*.

*NOTES ON CONDITION: I grade according to the Record Collector Rare Record Price Guide & will not necessarily list all individual points in the written description. There will be a blanket grade for each component (sleeve, record etc), which smaller factors fall into. The general appearance will be clearly visible in the photographs. Please study the photographs in detail as they form the bulk of the description. Please be aware that play grading is based on my interpretation of what I hear on my system only. Although it is an honest assessment, it does not automatically follow that you would reach the same conclusion when listening on your own system, as there are so many variables. I DON’T use Record Collector Rare Record Price Guide categories when play grading, just my own judgement.

You shouldn’t have any problems with the transaction but please contact me first if you do.
