The final phase of the Indiegogo fundraiser for the documentary Better Things: The Life and Choices of Jeffrey Catherine Jones — the distribution of the donation perks/rewards — is underway right now, and today, I am happy to report that I have received a package from producer/director Maria Cabardo that includes a DVD of the film, the Jones-tribute art book, six postcards, and two neatly folded copies of the film’s huge poster.
The art book, which bears the title, Jeffrey Catherine Jones and Better Things, is graced with a wistful cover designed by John Pinsky. Here’s a scan:

Jeffrey Catherine Jones and Better Things also comes with a paper band designed by Christina Graf. Here’s scan of the book with the band in place:
And here’s a rough-and-ready scan of the six postcards, arranged in two rows of three on the surface of my flatbed scanner:
Please note that all of the images on the postcards are also reproduced in the art book, so if you like what you see here, you’ll like what you’ll find there.
Although I myself am happy to have the art book in my collection, I have no plans to review it for this or any other site. Just so you know.
Also, I do not plan to post a formal review of the documentary here at RCN. In case anyone is wondering.
I am pleased to note, however, that both my name and the name of this website are preserved for posterity in the acknowledgements on the inside back cover — which makes the book a doubly lovely souvenir for me.
Thanks, Maria!
It’s been fun. But now I’m done.
Over and out.
