Check signed by Jobs and Woz in 1976 goes up for auction

One more document that refers to the first years of the Apple is being auctioned off, this time a temporary check signed by the company’s two founding “Steves”, Jobs e Wozniakeven before the Apple was opened, on March 19, 1976.

In good condition, the check in the amount of US$116,97 (which would be worth about $630 today) has the same official address used by the company’s founders when it still operated out of the famous Jobs family garage.

Belonging to the Wells Fargo financial institution, it was destined for Ramlor, Inc., a manufacturer of printed circuit boards – presumably to pay for parts that would be used in the construction of the legendary Apple I.

considered by RR Auction (responsible for the auction) as “an extraordinary piece of technology history”, the rarity should be sold for at least US$50,000 – almost 80 times what the check would be worth today.

To give you an idea, last year, a check signed by Jobs and Woz — which are much rarer to find than one signed by only one of them — was auctioned for $131,100. This value may be a good indication that the US$50,000 mark can be easily surpassed.
