Auction site Profiles in History have announced that they will be auctioning off a number of Michael Jackson-related items in October. The top item? A glove Jackson wore on the 1984 “Victory” tour, which according to curator Joseph Maddalena should sell for at least $60,000. It’s a pretty amazing piece of memorabilia: Made as a one-of-a-kind item by a designer named Ted Shell (who also went on the tour to take care of the item), it is lined with 50 tiny lights that are connected to a battery in the cuff and twinkle randomly thanks to a series of circuits.
The auction, scheduled for October 1 and 2, also contains a fedora worn by Jackson and the motorcycle jacket and gold belt from the “Bad” video.
