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.

In 2009, Michael Jackson signed Julien's Auctions catalogs prior to or during the April 2009 exhibition at Robinson-May in Beverly Hills. Julien's Auctions sold these for purchase prior to his passing, as well as in the auctions held after his passing and they sold for close to $7000. The description for the auctions say "A Michael Jackson signed ...."
Comparing the two above which Julien's Auctions has labeled and accepted as Michael Jackson signed -- maybe having been signed right in front of them -- I am having a hard time understanding how the current auction autographs hold up UNLESS they are indicating that the ones on their catalogs from 2009 were really signed by Miko Brando???
The current catalog does not say "Michael Jackson signed..." nor does it say "Signed by Michael Jackson." It just indicates that the paper or clothing has "Love Michael Jackson" on it.
nice autographs!
i wonder if Juliens will run with this wording get out clause.
it would be less hassle in the long run if they just come clean and issue a ridiculous statement like Michael Bush in a drunken stooper one night accidently signed all the outfits for a giggle.
staying silent and ignoring people that genuinely can see that the autographs are not MJ's is making it worst.
... but then again Bush would rather be pigheaded and throw away 20 years of friendship than admit the truth.
*disappointed* :(
.. under instruction from Juliens perhaps to "muddy the water" ?
all this fighting is lost on me.
yes thank you Michael.. thank you everyone..
how does this all work ??
do PAAS submit to JA?
Thank you Michael , I also contact an expert 3 days ago, I expected this news, i hope to have principally made ...
Mike when you get back in to town can you please address this issue. YOU said that the examples of Michael Jackson that I posted were NOT authentic. YOU tried to embarrass me. When I posted the source was from RRAuction you were silent. Please clarity your 'professional opinion.' Or can you admit that you have no clue about Michael Jackson autographs?
