In very good condition with scuff marks and old clear tape reinforcement of the spine not affecting any of the signatures. Cline joined the cast of the Grand Ole Opry in 1960 and became one of the Opry's biggest stars. She is believed to be the only person granted membership by asking. Ironically, singer Jack Anglin of the country duo Johnnie and Jack fame, was killed on the way to Cline's services following her 1963 death. An astonishing array of country royalty!
