Ronald G. Wayne Offers Signed by Ron Memorabilia and Collectibles prMac

[prMac.com] Pahrump, Nevada – Ronald G. Wayne, the “forgotten” co-founder of Apple, is pleased to announce the immediate availability of signed replicas of the original Apple Computer Company contract, Apple-1 Operation Manual, the early “Newton” Apple Computer Company logo, and Ron’s autobiography “Adventures of an Apple Founder.” The items are now available for purchase on Mr. Wayne’s official website.

On April 1st, 1976, Ronald G. Wayne, Steve Wozniak, and Steve Jobs signed the contract agreement that formed the Apple Computer Company. Mr. Wayne typed that document before the signing.

The following day, April 2, Mr. Wayne created the “Apple-1 Operation Manual” in which he typed out the computer’s operating instructions in detail. The manual included hand-drawn illustrations, also created by Mr. Wayne.

Featured on that Apple-1 Operation Manual is a pen-and-ink illustration of Sir Isaac Newton, sitting under an apple tree, also created by Mr. Wayne. That illustration would become known as the company’s iconic, if short-lived, unofficial logo. Now, official merchandise bearing the 44-year-old work of art, personally sanctioned by Ronald Wayne, is available. Items include coffee mugs, pillows, iPhone cases, laptop sleeves, stickers and more.

“It was a truly whimsical expression, that work,” says Ron. “Newton, sitting under an apple tree, at the start of something that would go on to change the world. I wanted to capture that feeling.” 12 Days later, Ron would remove himself from the company, which would go on to be re-formed as “Apple Computer, Inc” without his involvement.

In addition to the logo merchandise, signed replicas of the original Apple Computer Company contract, Apple-1 Operation Manual, early “Newton Logo” as well as Ron’s autobiography “Adventures of an Apple Founder” are now available for purchase on Ron’s website. These documents have historical significance to hardcore Apple fans.
