John- Never being "too dumb".That's how we all learn.I've seen Fred sign other things on a few items.Had a B-riser that Fred signed "Good Hunting to a fellow bowhunter,Fred Bear" and also some photos signed "To my good friend,XXXXX.
I did once have a pair of bows signed by Fred with the very same inscription and dated 1959.One was a 1959 Kodiak that was like brand new but had a severely cracked upper limb.Same inscription in Fred's writing and in gold was on a same weight 1967 1/2 Super K and dated 1959.It appeared as though the gentleman broke the first bow Fred gave him and some time later had him sign the same thing on another bow.Both bows were in like new condition(except for the cracked limb) and appeared to have never been shot,and were both 60" and 50#.I imagine he usually dated them the same year they were signed.The 67 1/2 Super K was an exception.
Bjorn-That Bob Morley bow is really cool,especially the fact that if the leather hadn't been removed no one might have ever known it was his.Great stuff.
Wade- I would love to see your Basil Hughes arrow.I do have a couple of his signed hunting arrows but nothing as old as yours.One of mine appears to be from the 1950's.Someone out there has a 1970 Super K signed by Fred to Basil too.I remember seeing it when my bow was for sale.Wish I had bought it too but didn't.I remember it was signed in gold.
