Description

Rare signature from the protest vocalist, proclaiming “Down with Ford!”

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; he eventually succumbed to a number of problems, including bipolar disorder and alcoholism, and took his own life in 1976. Scarce felt tip signature, “Hi, Down with Ford! Phil Ochs,” on a beige 5 x 3 card. In fine condition. RRAuction COA.
