A color photograph of Chris Chin at VP Records offices. Chin is pictured sitting and leaning back on a wheeled chair next to a desk. He wears a light purple sweater with "CJC" monogrammed in white on the left side, a white plaid button down shirt underneath, dark grey pants, white socks, and brown shoes. His left arm is loosely resting on his leg and his right elbow is propped on a green metal desk with his hand near his mouth. There is a green metal desk to Chin's proper right, and a raised work table behind him cluttered with shelves, papers, and other office supplies. The floor is grey and white checkered tile. Boxes and records can be seen throughout the room. On the back of the photograph is the photographer's signature and date [2004], along with inscriptions handwritten by Bill Adler identifying the subject, location, and photographer.
