DONATION: A PERSONAL COPY OF THE NOVEMBER 1997 CCM MAGAZINE, CONTAINING AN 18-PAGE TRIBUTE TO RICH MULLINS
BIDS START AT $15
Derek Wesley Selby was Art Director of the award-winning CCM Magazine from 1995-1998. On September 19, 1997, less than two weeks before the November issue was to go to press with Sixpence None the Richer on its cover, noted singer/songwriter Rich Mullins and a friend were killed in a highway accident outside Peoria, Illinois. Derek; Managing Editor, April Hefner; Associate Editor, Gregory Rumburg and the rest of the publication's editorial staff immediately shifted the Sixpence cover story to December and spent the next two weeks working 18+-hour days to prepare an 18-page tribute to Mullins, his career, and his ministry. Now, nearly 12 years later, this issue is a rare collector's item and, more notably, a strong statement about the lasting value of those who commit to dispensing with artifice and to living each moment as genuinely as possible.
