Description

Sought-after Jun Fan Gung Fu Institute membership card signed by Bruce Lee and his top instructor

Fantastic unissued 'red stripe' student membership card for Bruce Lee's Jun Fan Gung Fu Institute, 3.75 x 2.5, signed at the bottom as president in bold black ink, “Bruce Lee,” and additionally signed by his protégé, "Taky Kimura." In very fine condition, with a light bend at the center.

This desirable membership card for Lee's early and influential martial arts institute boasts his Jeet Kune Do logo at center, which incorporates the yin and yang symbol and his motto: 'Using no way as way, having no limitation as limitation.' Lee founded his first Jun Fan Gung Fu Institute in Seattle in 1960, before moving to Oakland in 1964 and leaving Kimura in charge as head instructor. Once settled in California, Lee would sign the membership cards and send them to Kimura to be filled out and distributed to new members. An ultra-desirable format signed by the legendary martial artist-turned-actor.
