Bad Hendrix

Aside from the Hendrix autograph that I previously posted, there were two other rather dubious signed Hendrix items in the auction. One was a plain signed cut, and the other a signed picture.

Everything about the cut, the slant, the lettering, the formation, etc., looked "bad." Unless he was writing on something at an odd angle, it just doesn't match his usual writing style. In any case, I steered clear of it.

The photo was even worse, but it was hard to tell unless you were able to really enlarge it clearly on a computer monitor. The cut sold, but the photo did not even draw a bid.

+1. I believe it was signed in March or April of '67.

+1 as well. It is a nice partial set.

I'm not anywhere near as good as Ballroom on Hendrix, but I really like this!

Steve, if you are talking about the Stu example I agree. It would be a masterpiece of the forger's art if it wasn't right. A forger would no doubt make it a threesome anyway.
