- Mark Jason Murray here. I have spent over 25 years archiving and researching the life and career of Rudy Ray Moore. Many fans are likely familiar with my work relating to Moore through DVD/CD liner notes, documentary works (UNSUNG HOLLYWOOD: RUDY RAY MOORE, I DOLEMITE, etc.), DVD commentaries and even the creation of the official Rudy Ray Moore bobblehead figure. My officially authorized biography on Moore is entitled Thank You For Letting Me Be Myself and is scheduled for release in 2018. (For further info visit www.rudyraymoore.com)

RISKS AND CHALLENGES:
It's pretty simple actually. Everything needed to produce this set is in place and if this campaign is successful, the project happens. The project is in production during the campaign period and other surprises are to come. It's anticipated that the support will be here on this one time chance to make it a reality. The total amount listed needed to fund this is basically the "retail price" of the set and you are essentially "preordering" it. If all goes as planned everything would be sent to be manufactured within a couple weeks of the completed campaign.
Please help spread the word. Thanks in advance for your support of this project and your continued love for Rudy Ray Moore.
Estimated delivery date: Late December 2017
