Presented here are 10 copies of the album “Folklore” signed by singer-songwriter Taylor Swift. "Folklore" is Swift's eight studio album and was a surprise album, released with no press, to critical and commercial acclaim on July 24, 2020, amid the Covid 19 pandemic. Swift conceived of the album during quarantine as a collection of songs and stories that flowed like a stream of consciousness. Folklore was a departure for Swift, and the album consists of mellow ballads driven by neo-classical instruments and pursues a more indie folk, alternative rock, and electroacoustic style. The album explores themes of escapism, empathy, romanticism, and melancholia through a set of characters and fictional narratives featuring story arcs in stark contrast to Swift's more autobiographical style on previous albums. The album broke the Guinness World Record for biggest opening day on Spotify for an album by a female act. The album spent eight weeks atop the Billboard 200 and was the best-selling album of 2020.

The presented sealed albums feature a pensive and almost melancholic Swift set amidst a fog-filled forest. The album's reverse cover features Swift, back turned to the camera facing a forest, with her hair in knots and her jacket slightly askew. Swift signed all ten copies across the front of the C.D.s with a black marker. The signatures are bold and clear, and the C.D.s are in great condition. The entire lot of 10 "Folklore" C.D.s signed by Taylor Swift comes pre-certified by Beckett Authentication.
