He was known for being able to beat up more than one guy. Apparently, they were jealous of Bruce Lee.” 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you were one of the first people to suggest, the recently released Bob Baker letters might have been forged?. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I merely pointed out the a few of the letters did have different cursive writing from Bruce than the style that is normally associated with him. I never doubted the authenticity of the letter because I'm not well versed in that area of expertise to pass any sort of judgement. It was interesting to hear from such an avid collector as Charles Damiano and his take on the whole situation. He certainly has no doubt in his mind the letters are authentic and legitimate. I certainly agree with his perspective that it was initially a bit shocking & disconcerting to hear Bruce did hard drugs and might have even been addicted but it does nothing to tarnish his influence or long term legacy. As far as the Bruce Lee Estate trying to sanitize his image and present Bruce as a wholesome role model to legions of adoring fans all of these years -- well, that's expected for anyone in charge of a cash cow legacy such as Bruce Lee, Elvis Presley, James Dean, etc. I personally never believed in the image of Bruce as a man beyond reproach in his personal affairs. His drug use, albeit with hash & weed is documented as well as his affairs with women outside of marriage. So he was certainly no saint but that doesn't make him any less of an icon in my eyes. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a young teenager in the pre-internet day's, I only had the image of Bruce Lee that was presented to the public. I'd yet to view Death By Misadventure by George Tan, and I hadn't had access to any of Tom Bleeker's writings either. The older fans on the internet scene pretty much opened my eyes, to other areas of his life.
