Quote from: "jill"This may be a little off topic but it came to my mind when thinking about this signature. Does anyone know if he was planning any concerts in 1998 that got cancelled? I have a hunch about something.Nope.. none that I know of.... :?

Well, some of you have written me and told me what you read about the significance of the "1998." It seems that years back, a fortune teller or some sort told Michael that he needed to write the "1998" with his signature. If he didn't, he wouldn't live past that year! Michael followed this instruction for a while, but then realized that this probably wasn't true and so stopped the practice.
Hi everyone! Lately I've been stumbling upon a lot of pictures about items signed by MJ in various years, which all include the number 1998 (and three dots). I've heard a story about a fedora, that he signed in 1995, when the recipient asked him: ´"Why 1998?" he answered: "That's the year I'm going to die." Did he really believe that or is there something else behind that number?
Well, as no-one has answered, I did some research myself. In one forum, someone suggested that years back, a fortune teller or some sort told Michael that he needed to write the "1998" with his signature. If he didn't, he wouldn't live past that year! Michael followed this instruction for a while, but then realized that this probably wasn't true and so stopped the practice. Someone else said that MJ wanted to have a family by the time He's 40 and that would be 1998. I think these are both quite reasonable explanations.
Black synthetic blend concert worn jacket from Jackson's first tour as a solo artist, his September 12, 1987 through January 24, 1989 Bad World Tour. The jacket features black straps with silver buckles and silver zippers, the signature look of Jackson's Bad era. This concert jacket features a “Michael Bush, Dennis Tompkins” label and is signed on the back in silver sharpie market “Love Michael Jackson 1998” with his signature three 0's over an arrow design. Jackson often signed “1998” as early as the 1980s. Some speculate that he did so believing that it would be the year of his death. Jackson donated this jacket to Tony Martell, to benefit the T.J. Martell Foundation.
Here is the image of Barnum, creator of the world’s most famous circuses, being an explicit homage to this cover very “circus”. The bust is in the jacket lapel a pin with the number “1998? and if we add 1 +9 +9 +8 the result is 27 (the seven positive number in numerology) and adding 2 +7 gives 9 (the other number positive).

Or maybe he did plan it and did not intend to tour again after 1997. the start of something new. Mj started to sign this way in the 80's, and i dont think he planed things 10 years in advance.....but if he did... then in 1998 Paris was born. 1998 Grammy Awards performance of Man in the MirrorMICHAEL JACKSON LIVE LONDON, 1998,i also found this QuoteWell, some of you have written me and told me what you read about the significance of the "1998."

I read also that Michael thought he was going to die in 1998. I don't remember where, but I'm positive it wasn't just a rumor. And it would make since to why he signed "2009" on some of his last autographs ... since he "died" that year. I wonder if anyone still has those pictures :?:
