Submittal: There is a detailed submission process outlined on Johnny Bench's official web site. I submitted a ROMLB, SASE and money order.
Commentary: Unlike most Hall of Famers, Johnny Bench has a true process in place for submissions including a web site and a printable form to complete for send-ins. There are pros and cons to the formality. The benefit is that there's no need to cross your fingers with your submission because a real process exists. The downside, however, is that following Johnny Bench's process is more work and more expensive. Overall, the benefits outweigh the drawbacks. I definitely would rather have this kind of access to Johnny Bench than no access at all.
