A rhinestone-studded leather glove worn by pop icon Michael Jackson on his maiden Moonwalk in 1983, was on display Tuesday in New York before it rocks on to the auction block.
The sparkling bit of pop history was among 350 lots in the catalogue at the sale set to take place Saturday at the Hard Rock Cafe in New York's Times Square.
For fans of the late King of Pop, about 80 items are up for grabs, from the singer's public and private sides.
Among the Jackson belongings: a pair of sparkle-encrusted shoes, portraits of Charlie Chaplin drawn by Jackson when he was just nine years old, a black shirt signed by the star, hats, a 1985 Mercedes, handwritten letters, and assorted travel souvenirs.
