Autograph postcard signed (“Leonard”) to Marianne Ihlen ("Darling, darling") [postmarked Santa Barbara, California, 25 April 1968].

140 x 90mm, addressed to "Mrs Marianne Cohen."

"Darling, darling, feeling very good, have abandoned the career of singing. Miss you every day, will see you soon. All my love, Leonard." Ostensibly in California with Joni Mitchell, Marianne and Leonard officially parted ways in 1968, but his tenderness remains palpable. The postcard is accompanied by a mailing envelope addressed in autograph by Cohen, enclosing news clippings of reviews of his work.

By descent from Marianne Ihlen.
