Title: Lennon's hair
Post by: Spiritinthesky on December 12, 2008, 05:30:04 PM
From http://www.thisdayinmusic.com

Dec 12th, 2007, a copy of John Lennon's book, A Spaniard in the Works, which contained a lock of Lennon's hair, sold at Gorringes Auction House for £24,000, ($48,000). Lennon gave the book and the hair to Betty Glasow, the Fab Four's hairdresser during their heyday. He wrote in the book, "To Betty, Lots of Love and Hair, John Lennon xx." The strands of hair and book had been expected to sell for between £2,000 and £4,000.

Just think, owning a bit of John's hair!

I've never heard that before, and as much as I love John, that just gives me the creeps!!!

She needs to donate the hair so science so they can use the DNA and create Lennon clones. Get hair from all four of them and we can recreate the Beatles! Watch, one day...

That's an interesting thought, Sondra.

I doubt that there'd be enough usable DNA.  By the sounds of it, they weren't pulled out from the roots, that's where most of the genetic info would be.
