The auction house claims the mask made of silk fabric was personally designed by Jackson and contains visible traces of his stage make-up along with a strand of his black hair.

One of MJ's former bodyguards was in possession of the mask, and swears by its authenticity. The singer famously wore surgical masks outdoors as a form of disguise. The auction ends April 30 and bidding has already reached USD 21,190. The auction house estimates the mask will sell for USD 50,000-USD 150,000.
