I'm doing name verification for football sets, and this card has me stumped. Anyone know what Admiral Benbow Co. is referring to? Is it a sponsor of the set?

Quick edit to add: Beckett lists this as a promo, but I still have no idea who or what Admiral Benbow is.

I'll never quit collecting entirely, but I am downsizing. Check out my COMC store and help me thin out what I don't want so I can buy cards that I do want. See something you like? Send me a message on here, and we can knock the price down quite a bit. I'll even take a bit of a loss if it means getting you a card you really want.

Could be Admiral Benbow Trading Company in Lunenburg, Nova Scotia. ------------------------------- *Someday my cards may double in value and then be worth half of what I paid for them.*

Yeah, that's the only thing that would come up for me on a search. That's why I was thinking it was a sponsor, but I'm not a CFL expert and was wondering if anyone else knew more definitively.

hmmm... Are you sure it's from the 2004 set ? There is definitely one like that in the 2012 set. http://www.abdcards.com/cards/card-sets/2012jogo.htm (scroll down to the last card in the checklist there) Of course, maybe 2004 had a similar card as well. However I don't see any indication of it here. http://www.abdcards.com/cards/cfl-football-cards/cf04jogo.htm
