Joplin was found dead at the Landmark Hotel in Hollywood on October 4, 1970, most likely due to an overdose of heroin and whiskey. She was twenty-seven. Very rare 2 x 6 German magazine photo of Joplin wrapped in a fur coat, signed in red felt tip. In fine condition. A most desirable 60s music rarity! COA Roger Epperson/REAL and R&R COA.
