DS signed by The Jacksons, four pages, 8.5 x 11, May 18, 1984. Fully executed amendment to the Jacksons’ September 30, 1983 agreement with the Don King/Jacksons’ Joint Venture, setting forth key promotional, financial, and operational arrangements for the 1984 Victory Tour. The agreement authorizes negotiations with Stadium Management Corporation (SMC) to promote the tour and addresses advertising, ticketing, sponsorships, merchandising, revenues, production, and broadcast rights. Of particular note, it specifically references Pepsi-Cola’s landmark sponsorship of the tour and preserves The Jacksons’ control over their names, likenesses, merchandise, and production concepts. Each page is stamped “EXECUTED ORIGINAL.” Signed at the conclusion in ink and ballpoint by Jackie, Tito, Jermaine, Marlon, Randy, and Michael Jackson, whose signature stretches nearly half the page. The contract is cosigned by legendary promoter Don King and by Jackson family heads Joseph Jackson and Katherine Jackson. In fine condition, with toning to the corners.
Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity and provenance signed by Constance Harper, vice president of Don King Productions, Inc., stating that the fully executed contract was discovered in the company’s historic signed-contract filing cabinet, where it had been retained among Don King Productions’ historical records. Also accompanied by an original laminated The Jacksons Victory Tour ’84 staff/manager pass and an American Red Cross certificate of authenticity identifying the contract as Lot 54 and Constance Harper as the donor.
