About this piece
This is a lock of John Lennon's hair trimmed in September 1966 in preparation for filming How I Won the War, along with a photocopy of Lennon's signed call sheet and certificate of authenticity from Heritage Auctions.
It was originally obtained directly from John Lennon's hairdresser Klaus Baruck, who trimmed Lennon's famous hair in Hamburg, Germany, just before Lennon's role as Gripweed in Richard Lester's dark comedy about a fictional British army troop and their misadventures in World War II.
Included is a photocopy of the original one-page 8.5 x 11 inch mimeographed page titled "Petersham Films Limited/ Call Sheet No.13" which is dated September 6, 1966, which bears an interesting blue ink signature that reads: "John Lennon/ oh yes".
John Lennon started wearing his iconic round glasses for this role. He continued wearing the same style for the rest of his life.
