Entertainment memorabilia auctioneer Propstore is offering more than 350 music items used by or that once belonged to megastars at its November 15 sale, as part of a four-day event that will also sell film and television props and costumes.
Highlights from the music lots include a Jimi Hendrix master tape featuring four unreleased demo recordings in a box on which the musician wrote their titles.
Framed Beat It lyrics, handwritten by Jackson, will also go under the hammer, as will some of his jackets.
A black and gold military-style one has a price estimate of STG200,000 - STG400,000 ($A388,000 - $A777,000), while Jackson's red Thriller tour rehearsal jacket comes complete with multiple famous signatures.
"It has been not only signed by Michael, but on the inside, on the back lining, it's signed by John Landis, who ... directed the Thriller video, and his wife, Deborah Landis, who designed the jacket for Michael to wear," Propstore's music specialist Mark Hochman told Reuters.
"(At the) end of the day, it's a Thriller jacket that Michael's worn."

Also for sale are 15 guitars previously owned and played by Noel Gallagher, in what Propstore says is the largest collection of Oasis guitars to come to auction.
This includes his first while with the band, a cream Hohner JT60 (estimate STG25,000 - STG50,000 ($A49,000 - $A97,000).
"Oasis guitars do come up for auction ... primarily they're Noel's guitars and they're hugely sought after by collectors," Hochman said.
"The (Oasis) reunion has taken that interest to a different level."
Other lots are John Lennon's 1962 Fawn JMI Vox AC15 Twin amp (STG100,000 - STG200,000 pounds ($A194,000 - $A388,000) and a synthesiser Prince used during the recording of Purple Rain (STG50,000 - STG100,000 ($A97,000 - $A194,000).
