Three items signed by Pete Seeger, including an off-white 8.5 x 11 sheet with typed lyrics for the song 'Pete's Song', which features a handwritten letter dated December 2, 2002: “David - sorry, I don't have time to handwrite the lyrics of 'Hammer' and 'Flowers.’ This song I have never sung - I used a great old melody, but I'm dissatisfied with the words. The first verse is not bad - paraphrasing the original lines in the Bible. (Book of Proverbs). I forget chapter & verse, Don't use it.” Seeger adds some annotations to the lyrics on the left side. Included are two 8.5 x 11 typed lyric sheets for the classic Seeger songs, ‘Where Have All the Flowers Gone’ and ‘If I Had a Hammer,’ both of which are signed by Seeger, who adds a small sketch of a banjo to both. In overall fine condition.
