Although antique computers have no practical value, if they are classic and rare models, they have considerable collection value. Recently, an Apple-1 numbered by Steve Jobs appeared at auction, and the final asking price is expected to exceed $375,000.
The Apple-1 computer was produced by Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak in 1976. It was Apple’s first product, so it is quite memorable. They produced 200 Apple-1s back then, and the Apple-1s auctioned this time have the inventory number “01-00002” written by Steve Jobs himself, and they are in good condition and can still function normally. The computer was previously sold for $375,000 in 2018, and the auction price is expected to exceed that year’s price.
In addition to the computer itself, the auction also includes a certificate of Steve Jobs’ handwriting, an original Apple Cassette, original instructions, an ASCII keyboard from the same era, and a Sanyo 4205 monitor.
