A lock of John Lennon's hair is to be sold at auction later this year, it has been announced.
The strands from the dead Beatle's head are being sold by the group's former hairdresser Betty Glasgow.
She worked as a stylist on the Fab Four films "Hard Day's Night" and "Help" and was given the lock along with hand-written note from Lennon.
Worthing auction house Gorringes will be putting the lot under the hammer as part of "The Betty Glasgow Collection of Beatles and Film Memorabilia" in December.
The hair sample is expected to reach between £2,000 and £3,000, although Glasgow admits she will be sorry to see the many items go.
"It was great fun working with the boys on the films. They were always together in a group and having a laugh.
"My job was to keep their hair in order as the film was made over three months, so their trademark, mop-top haircuts had to be regularly trimmed", she explained.
