Jackson family items to be auctioned

LAS VEGAS, April 6 (UPI) -- A fedora worn by Michael Jackson and ballerina costumes worn by a young Janet Jackson are among Jackson memorabilia set to be auctioned in Las Vegas.

Also included in the auction next month at the Hard Rock Hotel, which will be run simultaneously on eBay, is a test-pressing of the Jackson 5's "I Want You Back" and the gold record for Jacko's "Thriller," NME.com said.

The collection was bought several years ago during a bankruptcy case. Michael Jackson, a Las Vegas resident, is reported to be considering legal action to stop the sale.
