A single trading card from Upper Deck's "Hair Cuts" redemption issue is presented. The card contains an encapsulated strand of actual hair from its subject, Dwight D. Eisenhower.
The "Hair Cuts" series was distributed in extremely limited numbers through a redemption offer in "Piece of History" baseball. A variety of important personages from the past are featured on individual cards, and each one of these exclusive collectibles is a marvel of creativity. A statement from University Archives – an organization that was instrumental in the production of the cards – appears on the back of each piece; this declaration attests to each hair strand's authenticity, and serves as the COA for the subject item. Graded MINT 9 by PSA. This is the only example recorded in PSA's census reporting. Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower (1890-1969) was the leader of Allied armed forces in the European Theater during World War II. In 1953, he became the 34th United States President. Mint condition.
