Three rare Apple items have hit the auction block, including a Steve Jobs<\/a> autographed copy of a Time Magazine cover, a functional Apple-1, and a vintage Apple check.\n<\/p>\n

\n

Another batch of Apple collectables have come up for auction, this time as part of Boston-based RR Auction’s Remarkable Rarities<\/a> collection.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

One item in the collection, a check, is particularly noteworthy as it bares both Jobs’ signature and a header that reads “Apple Computer Company.” Moreover, it’s dated July 23, 1976 \u2014 the year Apple was founded.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

“[T]he check uses Apple’s first official address at “770 Welch Rd., Ste. 154, Palo Alto”\u2014 the location of an answering service and mail drop that they used while still operating out of the famous Jobs family garage,” the auction listing reads.<\/a> “In very fine condition. Encapsulated in a PSA\/DNA authentication holder.”\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The check is anticipated to sell for at least $25,000. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Also included in the auction is a functional Apple-1 computer, hand-numbered by Steve Jobs. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The computer, which comes from personal computing pioneer Roger Wagner’s collection, is being sold with all components and accessories required for operation. It is listed as #12 on the Apple-1 Registry.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
