Protest singer (or, as he preferred, a topical singer) and songwriter (1940-1976). After years of prolific writing in the 1960s, Ochs's mental stability declined in the 1970s and eventually he succumbed to a number of problems including bipolar disorder and alcoholism, and he took his own life in 1976. Rare felt tip signature, “Phil Ochs,” on an off-white 5 x 3.25 slip. In fine condition, with a staple hole to top left and a couple stray ink marks. RRAuction COA.
