More than 2000 items from Michael Jackson’s Neverland Ranch - from costumes and personal effects through to his art collection - are going under the hammer in April in the first ever auction of its kind.
The 50-year-old pop star was key in organizing the exhibition. The world renowned entertainer hopes to raise millions of dollars to improve his current financial woes.
A red beaded jacket worn by the Gloved One during the making of his celebrity, charity single What More Can I Give, which has been valued at beween $1000 to $1500, is among the merch on sale. A signed oil-painting of MJ dressed as a king, valued between $4000 and $6000 is also being offered for sale, alongside a golf cart featuring the singer depicted as Peter Pan, expected to fetch up to $7000. As for Michael’s signature Swarovski crystal gloves, including the iconic white glove from his Billie Jean video? They’re valued at around $7500.
Property belonging to the King of Pop will be put up for sale by Julien’s Auctions in Beverly Hills on April 22-25.

What a freak . With bad taste too!
OMG! I want that glove! No, seriously. lol
tacky
I think this is kind of sad. I mean, these costumes and things are part of his hostory as one of the greatest performers of our time. I don’t think he would be selling them if he didn’t have to. He has spent an extraordinary amount of money on things for his house though, I guess it catches up to you eventually. I remember on that documentary he was just pointing to things he wanted, that were tens of thousands of dollars! It would be great to live like that, but you can only keep it up for so long. I would love to know the true story behind this guys life
