Michael Jackson memorabilia set for auction

(Reuters) - Michael Jackson's trademark black fedora and the gold record for his "Thriller" album are among dozens of the pop star's belongings to be auctioned by New York's Guernsey's auction house next month.

The collection includes about 2,000 items from the Jackson family, ranging from handwritten lyrics to Michael's sunglasses and microphone. The celebrity trove will be auctioned on May 30-31 at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas.

Keepsakes include Janet Jackson's ballet shoes and a Mae West costume she wore in her first performance with the Jackson Five. A black jacket with gold sequined epaulets worn by Michael in his 1980s "moonwalking" era is also on offer.
