Description Up for auction is an album from my personal collection, Harry Chapin's Short Stories. This album was signed by Harry Chapin after his concert which I attended on April 21, 1974 at the Foellinger Auditorium at the University of Illinois in Urbana, IL. This album has not been played since the late 1970s and I have only visually inspected the record and did not see any scratches or imperfections. The jacket is in excellent condition and the inner sleeve is original and in excellent condition as well. The edges of the jacket and binding do not show any signs of wear of handling. I accept PayPal only, No Returns, No International Orders and No Offers Please. Your album will be shipped in a heavy cardboard album box with additional cardboard stiffener. If you win more than one auction I will ship up to THREE albums for a one album shipping cost of $3.25. Barrington Coins A Very Good Plus record will show some signs that it was played and otherwise handled by a previous owner who took good care of it. Record surfaces may show some signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or very light scratches that don't affect one's listening experiences. Slight warps that do not affect the sound are "OK". The label may have some ring wear or discoloration, but it should be barely noticeable. The center hole will not have been misshapen by repeated play. Picture sleeves and LP inner sleeves will have some slight wear, lightly turned up corners, or a slight seam split. An LP cover may have slight signs of wear also and may be marred by a cut-out hole, indentation or corner indicating it was taken out of print and sold at a discount. In general, if not for a couple things wrong with it, this would be Near Mint. All but the most mint-crazy collectors will find a Very Good Plus record highly acceptable. Very Good (VG) VG records have more obvious flaws than their counterparts in better shape. They lack most of the original gloss found on factory-fresh records. Groove wear is evident on sight, as are light scratches deep enough to feel with a fingernail. When played, a VG record has surface noise, and some scratches may be audible, especially in soft passages and during a song’s intro and ending. But the noise will not overpower the music otherwise. Cover: VG covers will have many signs of human handling. Ring wear in the middle or along the edges of the cover where the edge of a record would reside.
