GLOVE GRABS BIG BUCKS AT AUCTION!
Michael Joseph Jackson (August 29, 1958 – June 25, 2009)
(WENN.com) – A rare, sequined white glove worn by Michael Jackson has sold for
almost $65,000 at auction.
The garment, one of several hand coverings the King of Pop sported onstage and
in music promos, was given by the star to his personal artist Paul Bedard in 1984,
and he later sold it to a private collector.
It went up for auction via Nate D. Sanders in Los Angeles on Thursday and fetched
an impressive $64,850.
The sale also featured a prototype of the iconic jacket Jackson wore in the video
for his 1987 hit "Bad," which attracted a top bid of $12,500.
