A lock of republican leader Michael Collins' hair as well as an evocative account of his death 100 years ago are set to be auctioned in Belfast.
The items are among a number from the Irish War of Independence going under the hammer at Bloomfield Auction House next month.
They include a walking stick owned by Collins, a revolver he reputedly had on his person when helping spring Eamon De Valera from Lincoln Jail in 1919 as well as documents from Collins' close friend Emmet Dalton.
