Macau: King of Pop Michael Jackson continues to create history. An auction of some 100 items of Michael Jackson memorabilia has fetched more than $ 1 million, with a basketball autographed by the late singer and Michael Jordan netting $ 245,000.
Showing the lingering appeal of the "King of Pop," the sale on Saturday in the southern Chinese city of Macau drew bidders from around the world.
An unidentified Internet bidder paid $ 180,000 for a black crystal-studded glove and an arm brace Jackson wore while filming a promotional video for his 1995 album "HIStory" while his “Beat It” jacket was auctioned for $ 156,000. An Internet bidder also bought the basketball.
Of the 435 total items up for sale, other non-Jackson items sold included a costume worn by Bruce Lee during the filming of "Game of Death" and a costume Madonna donned during her Girlie Show world tour.
