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.

I know we are trying to stay to one topic. The problem here is The fraud has been going so long and we are starting to unravel more pieces. It is relevant that this is deeper than we even realize. If you are new to MJ's world, its hard to understand. Michael was talking about corruption and conspiracies when he was here, and lots of friends just thought he was delusional, but Im not so sure.
Is this jumpsuit in the upcoming auction? I havnt looked at the whole catalog. It was sold at Juliens Auction in 2010 signed.
Sandy,
Yes. Based on comparing images, I think that there are two jumpsuits. I think that whoever consigned the one to Gotta Have It consigned the signed one to Julien's that sold six months later. It makes sense that both would be in the same hands if multiples were made, because wardrobes would stay together unless MJ gave one to someone, kept the other or gave it to someone else, etc. I think the consignor was Bush, but I could be wrong.
But you know MJ history. I don't.
Sandy,
Thank you. That's something you just made clear to me.
Another very relevant question. I agree.
omg! that hasn't even crossed my mind - and obviously didn't cross Bush's either. not that he even gives two hoots. senile fool.
it is true I did not think about that either ... Thanks Sandy
