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.

It is useless to post on facebook MLB, it does not respond aus questions, better are the fans that meet its place .... When Darren Julien has it also blocks you, I put links a question, simply remove it and I can not comment on his wall ... is more  is easy

How long ago did people start telling Julien's their authenticity concerns about the Michael Jackson autographs in the Tompkins & Bush sale?

For me, I emailed my concerns to him on Nov. 20 after he emailed me first saying he was disappointed in my lack of confidence (probably because I talked to Michael Bush & Julien's employees earlier that day).

I bought a item from this auction. Can anyone help me and take a look at the signature to say if it's real or not?

Just give us the lot #- if it is a Bush item- its most likely fake.

Juliens also suspended user accounts of those that were questioning the authenticity from bidding on their "online auction"

Veronica, on this site there are many professional authenticators who can help you get a professional opinion. I hope they come on here to help you as you find out about the authentication of the signature on your item.  I have purchased items on an auction before and was so happy. We do not want to take away your happiness at owning this item, but I know that you also do not want to feel ripped off. Please be patient as it is a Sunday, and people probably won't be checking in until tomorrow. 


Thank you for sharing your purchase with us.
