The Dallas Morning News is reporting a pair of Willie Nelson’s braided locks of hair sold for $37,000 at auction on October 5. The specimen were part of 2,000 items Jessi Colter, Waylon Jenning’s wife of over 30-years, listed with New York City-based Guernesey’s, in part to benefit the Phoenix Children’s Hospital. In 1983 Nelson’s braids were cut in support of Jennings’ sobriety, and presented at a party thrown by Johnny Cash. Final values for additional items of “Remembering Waylon” have not been released, but included Buddy Holly’s motorcycle, a letter to Jennings from John Lennon, a Rolex watch, and a contract between Nelson, Jennings, Cash and Kris Kristofferson for the Highwaymen. Meanwhile, fashions and personal memorabilia from Naomi Judd will go up for auction at Julien’s Auctions Beverly Hills as part of the Icons & Idols Rock “N” Roll catalog, from November 7-8. In part to benefit Tuckets House Charity, Judd’s Country collection includes memorable costumes (“Love Is Alive” and “Give A Little Love”), belt buckles and instruments. Additional items from Judd’s husband Larry Strickland of The Jordanaires/Stamps Quartet include Elvis Presley memorabilia and a shirt gifted by the iconic Memphis star.
