Re: Juliens Auction Dec 2 - The Collection of Tompkins and Bush Auction
because he doesn't say that in his book.
"in 1985 , shortly after I joined Michael's camp, he and I were in an elevator with a doting fan who gushed "I love your Jacket Michael". It was a black British hussar jacket.... "
then you see pictures of what looks like to be the White House jacket (one picture with black cuffs and one with close up of red) and it's written:
"After we began to photograph all our creations for Michael, we made sure to capture details like the ones on this hussar which is a re-creation of the jacket he gave away to an adoring fan in an elevator".
White House event was in 1990.
In other words Bush is saying Michael gave away a black hussar in 1985 - 5 years before the White House event. They did another re-creation of the jacket and photographed it.
It doesn't say that he gave away the 1990 White House Jacket. and it's quite impossible to give away a jacket 5 years before he wore it.
so to sum it
1985 black hussar that Michael gave away to a fan in an elevator
one (or perhaps even more) recreation of the 1985 jacket which Michael wore at least to 3 events in 1990 including to White House - no idea what happened to that jacket(s)
another similar yet slightly different 1994 VMA / LMP Kiss Jacket which is auctioned and now owned by Lady Gaga
Bush, in fact says in his book that Michael gave the White House jacket to a fan, so how can he mess up and describe it wrong to Julien? I can't understand that...
