One hand? All appear to have the same flavor of scratchiness. Something seems off. The "imi" leaning the wrong way at the end (not left)? Everyone is dotting the "i's" the same way?

An odd set for sure.

I rarely see RR autographs that concern me. I spent time with Hendrix's autograph, but it's loaded with red flags to me. The H's right upright is concave to the left instead of the right, the E has no characteristics I look for, the first hump of the N's isn't shaped like an undotted I, the D's vertical loop should be L/R symmetrical, and both the X and its cross are uncharacteristic. I'm not a fan.

Good observations, Steve. I also find the Mitch signature to be pretty unusual. A “Best” inscription seems to be rare. I’ll have to try to find another one. It’s usually “My best”, “Best wishes” or “Best witches.” I don’t believe I’ve seen the “B” drawn that way. Is the stem drawn last with no pen lift? Why is the “E” so tiny? The “M” in “Mitch” also looks odd with the extended downstroke to begin the first hump.

I don't know Mitch's and Noel's autographs as well as I do Jimi's so if I'm sure Jimi's isn't right, I often don't spend time on them. But if Jimi looks good, I definitely check them carefully.

Here’s a set that’s said to have been signed in Ireland on that date, 11/27/67.

That set looks fine to me. The Hendrix E is small and further from the H than usual but that's just normal variance. It's slam-dunk Jimi's handwriting.

I agree. Look at the difference in all three signatures.
