The Club got started back in late 1972 when Ken was handed a 10,000 count roll of Chiquita banana stickers (via his secretary whose husband was a stevedore unloading bananas at the docks in Long Beach CA. ) Ken put them in his briefcase and took them to professional photographic trade shows, then handed them out to convention attendees telling them to affix them to their I.D. badges and they would get discounts from manufacturers at the shows! It worked!, and soon Ken had Banana Club stickers made up with the B.C. logo to hand out. The photographers earned merits for hanging prints, so Ken offered B.M.'s (Banana Merits) for sending him anything tasteful to do with bananas! : ) That is how the collection was amazed to a count of over 17,000 items (documented by Guinness in the 2005 Golden Anniversary Book). A dozen press agencies have done feature "shoots" on the Intl. Banana Club and that has led to thousands of FEATURE articles and TV features around the world multiple times! We will continue our mission to keep people smiling , stay positive and in good health!
Our purpose is to provide everyone with a vehicle to keep people smiling, keep spirits up, get more attention, get discounts on just about anything, We give you the title of your choice and encourage you to stay in good health! For just a ONE TIME/LIFETIME membership fee of just $10.00 you can join this bunch and get the card you don't leave home without! Most members are C.H.D.'s (City Hand Directors) in charge of a bunch or F.D.'s (Finger Director) in charge of themselves. Ask for a special title and you will get it. We have L.B.'s (Legal Bananas) , DR. BANANAS), you name a title and you get it. (Titles MUST be in good taste! )
Simply showing the BANANA CLUB card with a smile on your face is guaranteed to get you special favors like discounts and upgrades! Put your title on your business cards and stationary and see the reaction. RECOGNITION is important and you can get it here in the form of B.M.'s! (Banana Merits) Yes, anything sent to us to do with bananas in good taste earns you BANANA MERITS! Keep track and when you get to 100 you can get an M.B. degree (MASTER OF BANANAISTRY) Or....500 banana merits gets you a PHB (DOCTORITE OF BANANISTRY). Nothing lude, crude or lacivious is accepted!
