From Entertainment Weekly:
We're coming up on a year since Michael Jackson's untimely death, but the late King of Pop's stuff lives on. Not just his music, though that's here to stay, too. I mean Jackson's actual worldly possessions: the assorted knick-knacks, portraits, and outfits that only he could have collected at Neverland Ranch. Photographer Henry Leutwyler has documented some of this treasure trove for an upcoming book, Neverland Lost. And today, noted MJ fan Kanye West has posted many of Leutwyler's most striking images on his personal blog.
Leutwyler's images capture something essential about the bizarrely beautiful palace that Jackson built for himself. There are statues of angels and Disney characters; Wizard of Oz and toy-soldier figurines; even what looks like an original hardcover of Peter Pan. There are all manner of sequined hats, socks, shoes, and of course gloves -- so many individual sparkly gloves, in so many hues.
