Michael Jackson 'Bad' glove sells for more than £200,000
A lone glove worn by Michael Jackson during his 'Bad' tour in the late 1980s has sold for more than £200,000 at auction.
Items from the King of Pop's stage wardrobe attracted furious bidding at the celebrity memorabilia auction in Beverly Hills.
Julien's Auctions said the glove worn by Jackson sold for $330,000 (£209,000) at the "Icons & Idols" auction Saturday night. A jacket signed by Jackson brought in $96,000 (£61,000) and a fedora he wore on stage went for $72,000 (£46,000) at the Julien's Auctions event.
Other highlights from the auction were an X-ray of Albert Einstein's brain, which brought $38,750 (£24,500) and a pair of Marilyn Monroe's empty prescription bottles sold for $18,750. A military-style jacket worn by John Lennon for a 1966 Life Magazine photo shoot sold for $240,000 (£152,000).
Julien's Auctions says the two-day event brought in more than $3 million.
