A 375-pound cement slab featuring Michael Jackson's hand and foot impressions along with his signature will be auctioned off at Nate D. Sanders' Tuesday, February 15, 2011 auction.
The slab's bottom left corner is dated '6/84,' when Jackson was at the zenith of his career, winning eight Grammys for his monumental album 'Thriller.'
Jackson's left palm print features a heart shape design with a surface crack running through it, thus the name, 'The Broken Heart Stone.'
During Jackson's final television appearance from London, he waved goodbye with his left hand and said, ' love you!' Jackson's handprint clearly reveals the heart shape that may become an endearing symbol of the King of Pop's legacy.
Jackson made the impression in June of 1984 for the city of Las Vegas for their Walk of Fame project, nearly 25 years to the day of his death. However, the Walk of Fame never materialized and the autographed stone with Jackson's imprints was buried in the basement of the Riviera Hotel for over two decades.
The impression comes with a Letter of Authenticity from Riviera President and Chief Operation Officer Mark Sterberns.
The auction ends Tuesday, February 15, 2011 at 5 pm Pacific Standard Time.
