"The Awakening is a 12 inch gatefold vinyl record EP with music by Arthur Baker and my Artwork and words. Edition of 50 inkjet printed and hand finished cover with vinyl. "

That makes me think only the cover is hand-finished

Signed, numbered and handfinished.

"yes they will be signed and numbered 1-50 and hand done calligraphy will be added."

Right?  - I guess if you only have a "few" to start with. 

Great deal and very nice, if only I had spare $$

It’s very tempting indeed.

Thanks for posting. Unfortunately, his CV doesn't really justify that kind of pricing for a signed book.

Given this is fundraiser, seems reasonable.

Still waiting on mine

Jan 15th 

The holiday shipping slam got us. We're so sorry some of you have yet to receive your reward. The unprecedented holiday shipping and handling left folks like us behind in the surge. We've been prioritizing backers who have messaged us directly on our campaign page to deal with issues case-by-case, but this takes time as we work across a pandemic and past an attempted coup.

That said, we've already heard folks with missing packages got them in the mail this week (finally!), especially those with JOY shirts, Jenny shirts, and Amplifier poster packs. Be on the lookout, but if they never arrive, send us a message and we'll work to remedy the situation together.

As for backers who have received damaged prints, we've been in communication with you if you've messaged us directly on the Kickstarter campaign. While some disagree with us here, we believe our third party fulfillment center (who has over a decade in experience shipping fine art) did not improperly package them. We believe the overwhelming rush in FedEx packages being shipped across the country likely caused this damage, especially when a few of you received tubes with ripped open ends and hastily tapped. While we don't believe this is the work of our team, we are nonetheless taking ownership of the situation and working to solve this together. The Wide Awakes is about centering joy, abundance, and love, and owning when things go wrong, and working together to fix them. Once again, we just ask for patience, grace, and good energy to ensure we get us all taken care of.

maybe we can suggest Parla just handfinish a print and they can keep the vinyl...

Still waiting for record too...I reached out last week to no avail

That's a poor excuse.
