    What would you pay for Ip Man's note books?

    If, say, Ip Man wrote notebooks about wing chun and his martial ideas, what would your maximum bid be if these items came up for auction?

    Just a bit of fun but interesting to speculate if there are a few notebooks floating around somewhere.

    Ugh, why do you want Graham's used boxer shorts?

    I would rather see a published version for mass consumption. However, if I had the money and they were up for auction probably no more than $5,000. Honestly, as interesting as it would be any more than that just seems like a hell of a lot to spend for memoirs or notes.

    I have copies of alleged notebooks by Leung Jan and Yip Man.

    There are lots of them floating around.

    I'd need to see evidence that the seller's Wing Chun had actually benefited from their ownership. By means other than youtube vids of competitive chi sao.

    Graham sounds more of a tighty whities man to me.
