2017 October Legends Closing November 11

Three trading cards from Upper Deck's "Hair Cuts" redemption issue are presented. Each card contains an encapsulated strand of actual hair from its subject, King George III of the United Kingdom.
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.
Each card has been graded by PSA. One piece is graded PSA EX-MT 6, and two have been assessed PSA EX 5. King George III (1738-1820) was the reigning English monarch during the time of the American Revolution.
