Michael Jackson’s glitter glove has sold at an Australian auction.  Peep how much the glitter glove went for…..

Via Yahoo:

A bejeweled white glove Michael Jackson tossed to an Australian fan more than a decade ago sold at auction Sunday for 57,600 Australian dollars ($48,400), almost twice the estimated selling price.

Warwick Stone, a buyer for the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, beat out five other bidders for the late King of Pop‘s glove, said Charlotte Stanes, spokeswoman for the Melbourne auction house Bonhams and Goodman. The estimated selling price before the auction was AU$30,000.

“We are very happy with the result,” Stanes said. “It’s the first glove we know about in Australia.”

Bonhams and Goodman said it was the first auction of a Michael Jackson glove since his death on June 25 this year at age 50.

Jackson visited Australia in 1996 as part of his HIStory world tour. While in Sydney, he attended the Australian premiere for the film “Ghosts,” in which he had a starring role. At the end of the screening, he tossed the glove at audience member Bill Hibble, who has since died, said national head of collectables Giles Moon.

    Considering that it came from a fan and not him, I can see why it went for what it did.

    Wonder if they’ll give the money to his kids. Or start a fund for them or something.

    I’d also like to mention that most individuals that find themselves with no health insurance are usually students, self-employed and people who are not working. More than half with the uninsured are really under the age of Thirty five. They do not think they are in need of health insurance since they’re young as well as healthy. Its income is typically spent on housing, food, plus entertainment. Many individuals that do represent the working class either 100 % or as a hobby are not provided insurance via their work so they get along without with the rising cost of health insurance in the states. Thanks for the strategies you share through this web site.

    Nice post. I learn one thing more challenging on completely different blogs everyday. It can at all times be stimulating to learn content from different writers and follow just a little one thing from their store. I’d want to make use of some with the content material on my weblog whether or not you don’t mind. Natually I’ll give you a link in your web blog. Thanks for sharing.
