Items from the birth of Apple, home computing and video gaming are up for grabs at an auction, which will conclude on March 17.

The top lot from “The Steve Jobs Revolution: Engelbart, Atari, and Apple” auction is a July 1976 check to pay $3,430 for parts for the Apple 1 computer, signed by Apple founders Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak.

“The reason it’s signed by both of them is in their charter. Any expenses over $1,000, they both had to agree and here’s the evidence.” “Steve did not sign very many things. He didn’t like to sign objects. So, his signature is very rare. It’s actually one of the rarest signatures that collectors are interested in. So, anytime something comes up with Steve’s signature on it, it goes for a lot of money,” said Steven Levy, editor at large for Wired magazine, which focuses on emerging technologies.
