Is the sad sight seeing Patrick Ewing finally signing but for Leaf or the fact that they cut a Logoman in half? Or Both? I'll go with both.

Most probable 2 reasons:

- Some licensing issue where they aren't allowed to show the entire logo on one card. Similar to why they quartered the Bulls Bull logo on their Pippen cards last year.
- Make more chase cards in the set. Which is still considerably impressive considering Patrick Ewing rarely, rarely signs.

Does it have anything to do with the fact that they don't have an NBA license? Maybe they wouldn't be allowed to display a logoman in its entirety.

It has nothing to do with licensing. Look at this Pippen:

How about the fact that Patrick still cant sign his name properly. Thats probably the worst part!

Thanks Gio. This one has been in hibernation for a while now. lol It's not going anywhere.. What they (leaf) did to that logoman by cutting it in half is just horrible...

I wonder why Leaf can still make this type of NBA cards while UD continues with college path.

I believe Brain Gray's justification in the past for doing this is to allow more collectors to enjoy hitting a Logo Patch on their cards, rather than just one.

I'm guessing UD chooses to create college cards because they have that license and want to get full value out of it.
