Attractive ballpoint signature, “Stay Sweet, Jimi Hendrix,” on an off-white 7.25 x 9 sheet. The consignor notes that the autograph was obtained at Whitla Hall at Queen's University in Belfast, Northern Ireland, on November 27, 1967. At the venue, Hendrix was presented with a birthday cake to mark his 25th birthday. This would be the Jimi Hendrix Experience's only performance in Northern Ireland, with the group performing two shows as part of the Whitla Festival. In fine condition, with intersecting folds.
Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Tracks and by a letter of provenance from the son of the original recipient: “The autograph was collected by my mother. She was born 1949 and raised in Northern Ireland. Jimi Hendrix only visited Northern Ireland once, playing the Whitla Hall at Queens College on November 27th 1967. My mother was a student studying Geography at the Queens at that time so she obtained the autograph during this time. She could have procured his autograph at the venue or the airport."
