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.

Yes, the 7 examples are all from the Dec. 2 auction.
Red image is: Lot 637 Beat It Style Jacket.
I know you found those "smoking gun" X's way back.... I just saw the arrow though, on several of the Julien-Bush items and then in Bush's book signing. There are even more examples from the sell off then what I showed.
Wendy you are amazing, the hundreds of hours of research you have done. omg,, dont forget to sleep and rest a little honey,, LV <3
Its been a team effort darling, seems Bush was under the influence of something when he signed these,, "THANKX" huh
Roger...Mike...have you ever seen Michael Jackson spell thanks "THANKX"?
Wendy...another great job!
I have never seen this before
Thankx, Roger.
WTH!!!!!!! Stain remover and garment steamer.....really? The signature in red looks like a whoever signed it was drunk or something.
Been a crazy night. I'm not going to get the new discussion up until morning. Too pooped.
excuse me but I could not stop laughing when I saw the signature on the bottle of stain ... Is this a joke?
I know... I posted that one on my facebook page. People really thought it was a spoof. If it wasn't so sad I said I would be ROFL. But we will see who has the last laugh. Bush must either think he IS MJ or has a split personality or something. He cant be in his right mind. Its so narcissistic..its scary.
