STEVE JOBS (1955-2011), MACWORLD PREMIER ISSUE - STEVE JOBS (1955-2011), MACWORLD PREMIER ISSUE Signature: Steve Jobs Description: A vintage premier issue of Macworld, the Macintosh magazine, featuring Steve Jobs on the cover alongside three early Apple Macintosh computers. Published in 1984 during the historic introduction of the Macintosh personal computer, the issue documents one of the defining moments in the development of modern personal computing and prominently identifies Jobs as Chairman of the Board of Apple Computer. The cover features the signature of Steve Jobs positioned beside his portrait and the headline ”Macintosh: Apple's Remarkable New Personal Computer.” As the inaugural issue of a publication closely associated with the Macintosh platform, this example represents an important artifact from the formative period of Apple and the personal-computer revolution. Material connecting Jobs directly with the original Macintosh launch era is particularly desirable among collectors of technology, business, and twentieth-century cultural memorabilia. The magazine exhibits age-related toning, surface wear, edge wear, and handling consistent with a vintage periodical.
