Jazz singer's items go for more than double antiques valuation

Individuals who are keen to receive accurate antique appraisals may be glad to hear that a Michael Jackson sale was not against the star's wishes.

This is according to the US-based Julien's Auctions, which is set to make the singer's memorabilia available for purchase in Macau on October 9th, Agence France-Presse reports.

Some of the items that will go under the hammer include a pair of crystal-studded gloves, as well as five jumpsuits.

These are part of more than 100 products once used by the singer.

Before Jackson's death last year, he agreed that Julien's could hold an auction to sell more than 1,300 items from his Neverland Ranch in California but the trade was later scrapped.

Antique appraisal seekers might also like to note that autographs from other music legends - the Beatles - are set to go under the hammer at the Clevedon Showrooms tomorrow (September 9th) and are expected to reach up to £1,800.
