    That's it? No authentication sticker on the back, no 1/1 numbering, a piece of hair so tiny...a bit disappointing to say the least.

    If I had pulled the Lincoln's pube and the bid was going to run up over $5k, I would'nt give a crap how small or curly the hair was!!

    Now over $5,000. You could seriously get an Abe Lincoln autograph for that money. Who is spending this??? Has Dmitri Young recruited all of MLB to enter the card market???

    With the amount of money that some of these types of cards bring, why would they get rid of the serial numbers and/or holograms? That's asking for trouble if you ask me.

    This article was in the newspaper the other day and talks about hair collecting. The story focuses on a particular dealer who sold Topps the George Washington hairs for last years set. I wouldn't be surprised if he provided the Lincoln hair too.

    How many Lincoln 1/1 hair follicles were supposed to be in the product? This one does not match the one in the photo on the box of Allen & Ginters that he has a photo of.

    Maybe there's 3, like Washington. Though the Washingtons each card had a different pic. These 2 look the same.
