I was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on this Chief Bender signed business card? It looked decent to me, but in Ron Keurajian new hall of fame signature book he says to be very wary of signed business cards of Bender. Any thoughts would be appreciated

Not an expert on Bender and I could be totally off on this one...
My gut tells me to stay away... 1-the C in Chief looks off to me, I dont like the size o the lower loop nor how it protrudes beyond the Pillar of the C... 2-B-e-n-d-e-r seems to be spaced out more than normal... 3-Also, the pen pressure seems inconsistent throughout... Look forward to seeing some other feedback. Hope this helps... |

I think it looks slowly drawn and wouldn't go near it, personally.

The reason the Bender business cards are perilous is that years ago, A large unsigned group of them were sold as part of his estate with other personal effects.
Its likely that a few maybe even more authentic signed cards exist but since there were so many unsigned ones sold. The odds are kinda against getting a good one. Since his autograph is not particularly rare you might consider acquiring his autograph in a different format. There are personal checks of Bender that are offered once in awhile and they display nicely. _________________________ jim@stinsonsports.com |

Thanks for the input guys. It is very much appreciated. Jim: I had actually started branching into signed business cards as I think they are on the more unique side and show an interesting side to the players, so that was why i was looking at the Bender. Between Ron's book and another awful one in a coaches corner auction, it seems there must be a decent amount of bad ones floating around. A real bummer.

+1,, definitely slowly drawn, avoid this one.
