MJ Glove History and Introduction

🙂

The Glove is completely different from the other gloves Jackson wore during that period.  It is made using cream leather, off-the-rack golf glove with an interior label reading as “Made In Korea”.

The glove was bought by Hong Kong businessman Hoffman Ma on behalf of Ponte 16 Hotel Macau, where it will now go on display.  He paid more than US$420,000 for the Glove after taxes.

Auctioneer Darren Julien said the 1983 television appearance when Jackson first displayed the Moonwalk – wearing the glove – had been his “most historical performance”.
