The earliest known check drawn from Apple’s original bank account sold for $2,409,886 as RR Auction closed Steve Jobs & the Computer Revolution: The Apple 50th Anniversary Auction.
You've scraped together $500 and written Check #1 from your brand-new bank account to pay for the design work. Sixteen days later, you'll officially found your company.
This year marks fifty years since I started RR Auction. It’s hard to believe. Back in 1976, I was a kid in Boston with a love of collecting and no real sense of where it would all lead.
RR Auction is honored to present one such relic: Check No. 6 from Apple Computer Co., filled out and signed by Steve Jobs just four days before Apple’s official founding.
