Jimi Hendrix Signed Promo Card

To my eye, it looks good, but I am no expert when it comes to Jimi so I welcome opinions from the usual suspects. Thanks

There’s actually footage of Jimi talking and signing some of these in the record store. It used to be on YouTube, but I can’t find it.

It’s on Facebook if you search “Jimi Hendrix Cologne”.

Awesome and adds to its appeal, albeit at a premium price. But then again, if I had oodles of cash to hand, and given the choice, this item would be right up there in terms of appeal. That or spend another £7000 on the fully signed ABAL Lp that was posted here on AL a while back and subsequently auctioned by the lucky owner. What a story!

That is the one. And I am aa quality picky as they come.Excellent contrast, strong sig on a clean Official original image from an in-store sit down(?) signing. One could not as much more. He is even looking straight into that camera.

+10 Ballroom.

Eric, do you think that the sold examples on the RR Auction site are as glossy as the OP? They don't look so glossy to me. I'm not sure if the photo is stuck on either in the RR examples. It may well be but as RR don't show the card In glancing light it is difficult to tell. It would have been quite.a procedure to stick the photo on but maybe the numbers needed for the signing didn't justify getting the card printed as one.

By the way, there is a video on the card by Iconic Auctions. The card they were auctioning appears to be one of the RR examples (now encapsulated!) and the auction description is practically identical to that used by RR:
