MICHAEL JACKSON World Tour 1988 - Crew Memorabilia (Awesome and unique collection of memorabilia & ephemera compiled and collected by a veteran crew member with over 30 years experience behind the scenes. Our man was quite literally 'on-the-road' with the stars in his trusted role as the artists' tour coach driver. This collection of items was accumulated during the Summer 1988 European Tour and comprises a staggering array of rarities, many of which were not available to the generalpublic, such as VIP passes, itineraries and crew clothing. One of the highlights is an AUTOGRAPHED tour programme, signed by Michael inside the front cover, plus much, much more!)

This is no ordinary pack of memorabilia items; this features items from one of those tours that go down in the history books for the biggest artist at the time, Michael Jackson. As mentioned above many of the items were never available to be purchased by the general public due to the information provided and many produced in small numbers for crew members only.

Signed Tour Programme & News Paper Cuttings
The tour programme measures 13" x 10" in size and features numerous colour images of Michael, with a superb 'Michael' shaped cut-out front cover and fold-out centre pages. This has been signed by Michael in a black pen on the front page and looks simply stunning.

The crew member this is signed for was a coach driver during the tour and comes with various European news paper cuttings including two from France with an image of Michael getting on/off the coach with the actual crew member in view.

The souvenir booklet looks to be an unofficial publication which would have been available outside the venues, this is for the UK leg of the tour and has the dates listed on the back and loaded with great images.

Itinerary Books
Three Itinerary books including two for the Summer Europe leg of the tour, includes tour dates, venue information, hotel & travel arrangements for both band & crew and more

Plus one for Artist Party which would have only been issued to crew, who worked close to the artist, also includes two separate sheets of information which have had hand written notes added.
