Apple Fans Bidding on Autographed 1st Issue of Macworld

Posted by CmdrTaco on Sunday January 5, 2003 @05:19AM from the you-can't-make-this-stuff-up dept.

Craigtay writes "Some Apple fans are opening their wallets to buy an old magazine, but not just any old magazine. This first edition of Macworld, which was released in 1984 (and apparently contains an interview with Bill Gates), is signed by Steve Jobs. The bidding is currently above the $2,000 mark. News.com has done a news story here and click here for the eBay page." Thats ummm.... special? It amuses me that the reserve isn't met yet either. ;)

Jobs has a fairly distinctive signature, and the one on the mag looks a lot like the one in the PDF you linked to. And they both look like what's molded into the case of the very early Macs.I'd be inclined to believe that this is legit.
