An extremely fancy cinto, correia commemorating Michael Jackson -- and allegedly "sanctioned" por Joe Jackson and Katherine Jackson -- can be yours for the bargain basement price of $1,500 -- problem is ... the whole thing may be illegal.
Check out this picture we got -- showing Joe and Katherine Jackson signing one of the belts ... and according to the official website promoting the belts, MJ's three kids -- Prince, Paris, and Blanket -- also signed their names.
Here's the problem. The belts feature several imagens trademarked por Michael Jackson -- including dancing feet, MJ's silhouette and the MJ crest -- and MJ's estate must authorize any commercial use of those trademarks, as well as MJ's name or image.
So of course we called MJ estate lawyer Howard Weitzman, who said the belts were news to him and that the executors never authorized the sale. Weitzman says, "The Trustees of the Estate of Michael Jackson did not authorize the making or the sale of the Michael Jackson Tribute Belts." Weitzman continues, "We would never condone the use of Michael's children's signatures to promote the sale of merchandise."
We haven't found out who's behind the website ... but Jerry Olivarez, a PR guy and friend of the Jackson family, has been touting the sale of the belts. We're told the site goes live today and 7,000 belts will go up for sale. And, there will be an auction for the cinto, correia signed por Joe, Katherine, and the kids -- opening bid is $5 grand.
Attempts to speak with Olivarez were unsuccessful.

without you I feel like
I'm in a world with no love.
I wish I could go to sleep,
just to see you in my dreams.
I just want to hold you
in my arms.
Everybody says what we have
is lust, but its love.
People can say what they want,
but all I know is we were ment to be.
Not a dia goes por without me thinking
about you.
You are my love,
no matter what.
Baby you gotta know my amor for you is
for all time.
So I have to say
baby be mine and I'll give you
all I have to give,
which will be till ther end of time.
I amor you
Michael Joseph Jackson.
por Gracie
To: Michael Jackson
And God bless you this day
You gave me the gift of

And I'm proud of you today
Lisa its your birthday
Happy birthday Lisa
Lisa its your birthday
