Looks like there are 3 cards - based on the checklists it looks like they were all insterted into retail packs. Interesting to watch how high this one goes....

there are over 9900 people watching this with 6 1/2 days left.

any guesses on what it will go for?

I guess $65,000 - $75,000.

How can you tell how many watchers there are?

i think that number is the number of hits that auction paged has recv'd.

that's not the number of watchers........ it's the number of people who viewed it.

I wonder if that's true about retail, if the retail boxes will spike upward. They already are doing pretty well.

My mistake, 9900 people have viewed it. Not , 9900 people are watching it.

But it's probably the same number watching it.

On this one, if you view it, you are probably watching it just to see where this sucker ends up.

That is a nice card, but I have one stupid question about the information. How did they aquire the hair from his daughter? She must be 200 years old, correct????

Just jealous and wish I pulled something like that.

In answer from Beckett main page Quote:According to Topps spokesman Clay Luraschi, the company was able to broker a deal through EAC Gallery to obtain locks of Washington's hair from renowned hair collector John Reznikoff, who is listed by The Guinness Book of World Records as having the largest collection of hair from historical celebrities. According to Topps, the hair was originally owned by the granddaughter of Martha Washington's first marriage, Eleanor Parke Custis.
