Steve Jobs Signed 1976 Apple Computer Check No. 4, Predating the Official Founding of the Company - PSA GEM MT 10 Wells Fargo bank check, 7.5 x 3, filled out and signed by Steve Jobs, "steven jobs," payable to Zack Electronics for $4.95, March 19, 1976. Drawn on the account of "Apple Computer," this temporary check, issued upon opening Apple's first bank account, bears the same routing and account numbers as other early Apple Computer Company checks we have offered—those, however, date to July 1976 and are imprinted with Apple's first official address at '770 Welch Rd., Ste. 154, Palo Alto'—the location of an answering service and mail drop that they used while still operating out of the famous Jobs family garage. In very fine condition. Encapsulated and graded by PSA/DNA as "GEM MT 10." Marked as check "No. 4," this ultra-early check predates the official founding of Apple Computer, Inc.—some thirteen days later, on April 1, 1976, co-founders Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak, and Ronald Wayne would sign the partnership agreement that officially brought Apple Computer into existence. In March 1976, the month of this check, Wozniak had completed work on an innovative microcomputer design—now known as the Apple-1 Computer—and Jobs suggested that they sell it. Based on the early date, this check for $4.95 to Zack Electronics—an electronics distribution house with locations in Palo Alto and San Jose—likely represents payment for parts affiliated with the first Apple-1 prototypes.
