In 1984 a party was held in the the Natural History Museum in New York City to celebrate the record breaking sales of Michael Jackson's album "Thriller." The invitation granted to a select group of people was a white cotton glove, bearing the words: "Walter Yetnikoff, Don Dempsey, Allen Davis invite you to a MICHAEL JACKSON THRILLER PARTY. 2/7/84 9PM. AMERICAN MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY, CPW at 79th ST. BLACK TIE. RSVP Susan Blond This specific invitation was owned up until now by musician Graham Parker, who was present at the party. Here is what he has to say about it: "I got this glove from someone who was attending the party. He was a staff member of CBS Records who was close to Michael at the time and accompanied the artist to the event. It is in good condition, a little faded from time but the invitational words are still clearly visible. It has a very small tear on the the index finger, probably because I wore it to the event!" What a cool piece of music history - a unique invitation to a party for one great artist that has been owned and worn by another great artist! We figured somebody's got to want it!
