This LP was graciously signed by Mr. Johnny Griffin (1928 - 2008) at St. Ambrose College in 1995. The concert program and admission ticket are included in the package. The concert cost me $9.00! This ticket allowed me to hear and to have a prolonged conversation (after the concert) with one of the greatest saxophone titans in the history of jazz.

I am an expert shipper. I will remove the inner sleeve and vinyl from the outer sleeve to prevent seam-splits in transit, and I will package the LP using a rigid mailer and reinforced cardboard. Being a collector myself, I understand the great importance of accurate product listings, professional packing, and fast shipping.
International customers are welcome!!!
