Burning Issue Volume One Special Edition SUPER DELUXE Supplement 2020/21

Launched in tandem with the Festival of Money, this 38-page Supplement served as a multi-faceted guide: a programme for the event, a catalogue of our Money Art Exhibition, and an essential update on all things money-burning. Edited by the dynamic duo of Jonathan Harris (editing and producing) and Jonathan Greet (designing), it features an obituary for Bapu (Hugh James Davey) penned by Christopher Stone. This heartfelt tribute is illustrated with a special £23 note, uniquely crafted by Harris to honour Bapu’s memory.

The heart of the Supplement is the remarkable collection of MoneyArt displayed at Church of Burn’s exhibition. Artists featured include the legendary Jamie Reid, Gig Depio, Justine Smith, Stacy Lee Weber, CK Wilde, BrixtopiaArt, and the late Pete Loveday. Pete contributed a hand-painted Russell £23 ‘Nowts’ note from the Bank of Last Resort — possibly the last time Russell appeared in his work before Pete’s passing in 2024.

The Supplement is rounded out with dedicated sections on Fashion and Ritual. With only 200 copies in the first print run, it has quickly become a collector's item.

While individual copies have sold out in our shop, a limited number of twin packs of the Burning Issue SUPER DELUXE + Supplement remain available. View the twin pack here.
