He bought many items from me (mostly Shirley Temple and other child
stars) through his right-hand man, David Guest (who was a greasy-haired
weirdo, who re-created himself years later as Mr. Liza Minelli, short-haired
weirdo).

Earlier, in the late 1980s, he (Michael) was at a Doug Wright show I was
selling at, wearing wacky make-up that made him look deformed (so no one
would recognize him), and he asked me in a weird whisper if I had any
Shirley Temple items, and I told him I had great ones at home, and gave him
my name and number, but he never followed up.
