Apple, the world’s most valuable company, started the first years of the company’s history by producing computers. The Apple-1, developed by Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak, recently fetched a record price. The advertising poster written by Jobs was also sold at the auction.
Original Apple products fetch record prices
The restored Apple-1 computer, one of the first computers produced by Apple founders Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak, was put up for auction. It was reported that the Apple-1 changed hands for 223 thousand dollars in the auction held last week.
Apple-1, of which only 200 were produced between 1976-77, was developed by Jobs and Wozniak. These computers played a critical role in the establishment of Apple, which has become the world’s most valuable company with a market capitalization of $3 trillion.
It was stated that the Apple-1 sold at auction was both in working condition and signed by Wozniak. It was stated that the previous owner bought it in the 1980s and kept it since then.
Among the other Apple collections sold at the auction was the Apple-1 advertisement prepared by Steve Jobs. The advertising poster with Jobs’ handwriting changed hands for 176 thousand dollars. It was also stated that an old check belonging to the company signed by Jobs and Wozniak was sold for 135 thousand dollars.
We often see Apple products sold at auction. For example, last month the first iPhone, still in its gelatin, fetched a jaw-dropping price. The original iPhone was sold for 158 thousand 644 dollars.
