Futura ๐บ๐ธ Leonard Hilton McGurr โข New York Graffiti Artist, by Newar on Dec 27, 2020 8:46:30 GMT 1, Iโve just seen this on Instagram... Anybody got a โ+ signatureโ version? 
It's a VIP he has not even paid it (and maybe doesn't care) 
For common buyers it's another story

Futura ๐บ๐ธ Leonard Hilton McGurr โข New York Graffiti Artist, by beicoblack on Dec 27, 2020 14:17:34 GMT 1, After few hours of thoughts, I cancelled my order with Amazon. After seeing the pictures, I really thought it wasnโt worth the money, for me. Happy for everyone that already got it. In my opinion the stencil with a splash of color wasnโt worth the difference in price, also considering the big drama for the signatures / not willing to sign them. Only to find out that he kept some for someone and signed them (wtf). I hope someone will enjoy my copy and not resell it straight away to make few bobs.
But I've bought the regular edition already which I can highly recommend.

He signed almost everything,almost everywhere and will keep on doing so. He's just not letting him be forced into something that wasn't agreed. Take any copy to a signing session and give some love in general

All the fuss and he's signing copies anyway what a tool. He signed almost everything,almost everywhere and will keep on doing so. He's just not letting him be forced into something that wasn't agreed. Take any copy to a signing session and give some love in general Agreed, but the way this was released is the main issue. Most purchased based on the Classic Futura imagery and signed info provided initially by Rizzoli - subsequently revised. Yes there was obviously a major communication breakdown between the publisher and the artist, but in the end I just see this as a missed opportunity. A nice hand signed artists edition of the standard book would tick a box for the artist, fans and the publisher alike. In the end I get the feeling the end product is compromised for all involved - Futura extremely unhappy with the publisher jumping the gun, the publisher not being able to provide the product they suggested they had available (and no doubt question marks on any future collaboration) and worst of all fans ending up with something far off expectations. It is what it is, but for me it's just disappointing something couldn't have been worked out - by all accounts the book is excellent so a bit of a shame .... |

No use crying over spilt milk, simple as that. Publisher made a mistake. Take ten minutes and sign the books, don't throw a tantrum on Instagram. |

Rizzoli should have paid Futura enough money to have sprayed some atoms on there and put his signature in there. If they gave him ยฃ200 to do do this for each clamshell they would shifted 250 more books and Lenny wouldโve had ยฃ50k in his pocket. Just nuts.

Very happy with mine - no signature as expected. Had a quick flip through the book itself, and it looks great.
