William Clarke Quantrill Hair Clipping with Certificate of Authenticity

An evocative remnant of Civil War history, this authenticated clipping of William Clarke Quantrill’s hair offers collectors a rare personal connection to one of the most notorious Confederate guerrilla leaders of the era. Known for commanding the infamous Quantrill’s Raiders, his legacy remains one of the most debated and controversial of the American conflict, making items tied to him especially compelling for Civil War historians and collectors.

Collecting hair, known as "hair work," was a common Victorian practice for mementos, especially after a person's death.  Over time, different locks have been passed down through families, sold at auction, or donated to institutions. This is a meaningful addition to any Civil War, Confederate, or frontier-era collection.
