Five strands of hair belonging to Franz Peter Schubert, each measuring approximately .5” in length. The hair is secured to a larger sheet of paper within a small 1.75” x 1.75” card with a plastic overlay. The 8.5” x 11” display reads: “A lock of Franz Schubert’s hair given to Mr. Otto Erich Deutsch cut right after his death and sent by Dr. Kaindlsberger to Knight Von Hartmann in Linz.” Fine condition. Accompanied by a plethora of provenance lineage, including the original full lock noted as having been sold by the legendary Charles Hamilton, and a certificate of authenticity from John Reznikoff, whose hair collection is certified as the Largest Hair Collection in Guinness Book of World Records 2014.
