Case study:
Crash agrees to have Steve represent him in various transactions as an agent to secure him performance contracts and endorsement deals.
Crash writes a letter to Bob informing him that Steve is his agent. Unbeknownst to Bob, Crash specifically told Steve that the only type of deal he can make with Bob is an endorsement deal. However, Steve instead signs a contract for Crash to attend a birthday party performance.
In all other cases, Steve has express authority to enter into any contract on behalf of Crash.
Steve makes a contract with Jimmy for a performance at a bar. Jimmy knows Steve is an agent, but he doesn't know who Steve is an agent for.
Finally, Steve makes an endorsement contract with Fred. Fred has no idea whether Steve is representing anyone.
