A little history: Through the years I have enjoyed the collecting of locks of hair of famous historic individuals which contains their DNA . I have also owned quite a large number of signed letters, documents and photographs of great historical persons but always wanted something more personal. I have found that these precious treasured hair keepsakes make a powerful statement when exhibiting them. The exhibition in your home or office of my hair ensembles makes for the most fascinating and awe- inspiring viewing imaginable. You will have an actual part of the admired historic person you hold most dear and close to your heart. You will be one of the very few persons in your area to have anything like it. Your friends, associates and relatives will be awe-struck upon viewing these rare and beautiful hair artifacts. All hair is most resilient and can last forever and be handed down to limitless generations where autographs fade through the years especially if exposed to sun light. That is why during the Civil War women cut locks of hair from soldiers departing for the War as it was lasting and they would hold their loved one close to their heart which they did with the hair and photo contained in lockets, necklaces broaches and pins. If their loved one was killed they had a timeless memorial of their loved ones. "Hair on ones head signifies beauty, vitality and growth like the main of a horse." The collecting of hair was bigger than collecting autographs in the 1800's.

I retain the original documents of certification pertaining to my acquiring of this lot and each lock of hair in my collection and my actual signature stating that I have removed this hair from this enclosed described lot is affixed to this hair ensemble along with the individual's image and statement of certification and provenance.
