Historic Michael Jackson Item Going on the Block
Word came over from Nate D. Sanders that a historic Michael Jackson item is going on the auction block next week. Here's the details: In June 1984, Michael Jackson pressed his hands and feet into concrete for what was meant to become part of the Las Vegas Walk of Fame Project. Jackson then reached down and signed a huge stylized autograph into the cement.

Although the Las Vegas Walk of Fame project never materialized, the Riviera Hotel stored Jackson's cement casting – along with those from countless other celebrities – in a storage unit where it remained hidden from the world for the next 21 years. Now, this one-of-a-kind Michael Jackson item will be auctioned by Nate D. Sanders, Inc., one the world's leading dealers of Hollywood memorabilia, autographs, rare books and gold coins.

When Jackson made his hand and footprints in this concrete slab, the "King of Pop" was literally entering the apex of his career. His landmark album "Thriller" would win eight Grammys that year. The entire event was photographed extensively, and the Nate D. Sanders auction includes a photo of a smiling Jackson with his shoes in the cement that was later made into a promotional poster. A certificate of authenticity (COA) from Riviera President and COO Mark Sterbens, who is standing beside Jackson in the photo and assisted him during the event, is also included in the lot. Almost exactly 25 years to the week later, the world lost Jackson forever with his tragic death on 25 June 2009. more on this story
