Hopefully Ballroom will check in. The people that forge these are usually pretty good.

A very good forgery, in my opinion, and not the first from this seller.

It looks fake to me.

Was it Steve Grad who said Jimi rarely wrote all this Stay Groovy junk? In the top ten forgery video. Not that I defer to Steve but he brought up a good point. I'd be interested in Roger Epperson getting involved in this one. I am pretty sure it's a fake but I'd still like study on Hendrix anyway.

Back to this one. The signature is all weird and little shaky and the flow is not fast. The H is strange and the relation of the letters in the last name is awkward. Ballroom is correct I feel.

I'm not aware of Steve Grad having said that, and he didn't say it in the YouTube video. Quite some time ago, Roger said that Jimi would never sign "Stay Groovy", but I'm sure he wishes he could take that back.

I doubt I'll ever get a hendrix although it would be great because there's to many forgeries. That letter is the same seller as the wall album that was being discussed. Wonder how many more unknown forgeries he has.

just to be sure the autograph in question wasnt from that seller im not suggesting that letter is a fake  just that i looked a that one as a comparison when i checked it against this one and it seemed to me the same in style and comparison ,have a look its near identical..perhaps near but not quite

its disheartening i know i dont think ill chase another Hendrix i dont even know that the big auction houses offer genuine ones anymore to be honest i dont know for sure that anyone can say with 100% certainty that a hendrix is a definate Hendrix

I misunderstood. I thought ballroom was talking about the letter being posted on the forum.
Real hendrix autographs carry a huge price tag.

I was referring to the one posted at the beginning of this discussion. Regarding the letter, Grant noticed that Noel's signature was actually signed by Mitch(!).
