Good info. on the print. My copy is no. 81/1000 and signed by Fred Bear in 1987. After all the info. on this topic, I think I will now frame my copy. I don't plan to sell my copy, but I am interested in what this print goes for [a range] when it does become available for sale. Any ideas?
Also, I have copy no. 25/100 of The Legend [Howard Hill] by Bill Baringer and Jerry Hill [signed by both] -- it is a 1980 print. This print has become quite scarce -- I haven't seen it available in the marketplace for a long time. This one I have framed -- it's a nice print.

Bill, I have seen them signed 85, 86, 87 for sure. I might have seen 88 but not positive.

Mine is 1987 -- 1000 prints would be a lot to sign if they weren't all needed imediately.
Thanks for getting me thinking about the print. I'm definitely going to have it framed now.
I have a photo signed by Fred Bear and "The Archer's Bible". My mother-in-law had a very close friend who used to winter in Florida very close to where the Bears stayed and met the Bears down there before he moved the factory there. Fred was kind enough to send me the photo and book. I finally met him at the Museum in Grayling. I guess it's a small world.

Tox - I am going to get mine framed as well. Still thinking about what kind of frame I want. I am thinking something special... Tom Phillips has suggested yew - that would be cool.

I just bought a print from Ben Lee that is number 42 of 450. This print is signed by Bob Munger, and Fred Bear. The print was made by Charled Denault. I have yet to see another one like it. Any idea on Value?
