Michael Jackson Collectible Magazines

Have you seen any of the new special edition magazines featuring Michael Jackson? They are starting to come out in groves now! Commemorative Time, Newsweek, People and many others are hitting the stands. These are certainly nice to own but have you noticed the vintage Michael Jackson magazines out there, especially on eBay? Wow! It's like a buffet out there for us Michael Jackson collectors!

I'm lovin' it. People are just cleaning out their old junk draweres, garages etc in search of these old magazines in order to make a few bucks and it's us collectors who are getting the real deals! While it's true that a lot of them are overpriced, it's also true that the selection has never been better. It's never even been close to this and therefore you can get what you want or need for your collection.

I've seen some very rare Jackson Five magazine covers too, from the early 70's which I've never seen before. Even though the 80's were saturated with Michael Jackson headlines and magazines, there were some rare issues and they are being made available. I've also replaced a few of my magazines with ones that were in much better shape.

I've always liked magazines for a collection. They add to the timeline in a way that nothing else can. The pictures inside magazines are generally of very good quality and there's lots of them. The ads represent the time period and there's always dates if not on every page, at least a few and in the ads.

A magazine can be held and looked at and I suppose it's the idea that you can read it that makes me enjoy them so much as part of my Michael Jackson collection. It's really cool when someone sees my display, comments on it and walks over, picks up the magazine and reads it. I think it makes the collection more magical.

Michael Jackson Collectible Autographs

The sudden and untimely death of Michael Jackson has created a huge demand for Jackson collectibles, mainly autographed pieces. Several autographs have sold on eBay for over $1,000 in just a few hours after the announcement of his death.




There are many autographs of MJ out there but certain time periods hold more value, such as early Thriller era periods or his very private and troublesome 2000-2004 years. These signatures, often just scribbled on a napkin, can bring a lot of money if you are fortunate enough to own one.

The value of a Michael autograph can mean much more than just the amount of money it can fetch. Autographs hold sentimental value that cannot be measured in dollars. The vast majority of his autographs are purchased for this reason, by very devoted fans. There is something magical about owning Michaels signature that captures ones imagination and gives a sense of closeness that cannot otherwise be felt except for a meeting in person.



Posters, photos and albums are popular items to find with an autographs. Fortunately, prints can be purchased too. These are very nice, quality duplicates of the original autograph and make very nice keepsakes for those that cannot afford the real deal.

If you are seeking MJ's autograph or any collectible from the late King of Pop, now is the time so find what you need. The market is flooded and there is a huge selection to choose from. Once these items are sold, of course, there will be few available and what is left will command a very hefty price.
