Michael Jackson Signing Styles in Julien's Tompkins and Bush Sale
On December 2, Julien's Auctions is selling The Collection of Tompkins and Bush. The collection contains 465 lots of Michael Jackson memorabilia, 287 of them autographed.
Michael Bush and the late Dennis Tompkins were Michael Jackson's costume designers for 25 years, during Jackson's most successful period. They were the consignors of the signed Thriller jacket that Julien's sold for $1,800,000 in June 2011.
Almost all of the autographs in the Tompkins and Bush sale are a variation I'm not familiar with. I've only been looking at Jackson's autograph for a few years, though, and we have members here who have collected him for decades, so I'd appreciate your input and exemplars.
If you know Michael Jackson's autograph well, please look at a few images below from the auction and let me know what you think. Even better, browse the auction and upload any similar examples you have: http://www.julienslive.com/view-auctions/catalog/id/77/
Julien's is the world's premier auction house for Michael Jackson memorabilia, so they would know his autograph better than most of us. I'm just surprised I haven't seen this style before.
Thanks for your help.

Of course that's why he is threatening. Also the state of California does not take SLAPP suit filing very lightly. If a SLAPP suit is filed and the court agrees that is a SLAPP suit then they also have to pay for the attornies fees. Public figures giving their opinions on autographs offered by other public figures is not something that can be sued over. I know this for a fact.

I'm looking through the auction book on Julien's website to see if there is anything else to alert Bravada about that may be a reproduction after Michael died that Bush mistakenly thought was an original and signed MJ's name to it.
There are other LA Gear items...
Lets keep looking for more evidence!
The more the merrier!

Compare this Michael Jackson signed jacket in Nate Sander's current auction to the ones in Tompkins and Bush: http://natedsanders.com/LotDetail.aspx?inventoryid=11265#

There's that L, dropped way down below the whole imaginary line the word Love is written on. Very few in Bushs auction have this, yet on almost all authentic autographs from all different era's--it is there.

I agree. Here's a MJ initialed note from the same Nate Sanders auction, with typical MJ writing style. Click to enlarge:

Yes. The dropped L again. Very perceptive find there.

I do not believe there is any problem with this MJ signed jacket. I have reviewed on-line the jacket twice last week and I do not see any issues with it. I would say via scan the jacket is authentic.

It looks solid as a rock to me too.

I have also physically examined and authenticated this "Beat It" Jacket. This one sold at Julien's auction for $132,000 but without any mention of P.A.A.S. or The P.A.A.S. hologram attached inside the jacket. I was the first to authenticate this jacket, and know the story behind it's authenticity.
