This suit of Armor was owned by Michael Jackson in the early 1980’s during his “Thriller” peak. It was because of the success of the album sales of “Thriller” that Michael wanted to show his appreciation to key people who made this success possible. One such person was Tony Martell founder and CEO of The T.J. Martell Foundation. The T.J.

Michael Jackson personally gave this suit of Armor to Tony Martell. There are photographs of Neverland where an identical suit of armor can be seen.
