Rare Working Apple I Tops Bonhams Auction With Half‑Million to Eight‑Hundred‑Thousand Estimate
Bonhams will auction the Hatfield Apple I, a rare, functional early Apple computer signed by Steve Wozniak. Estimated at $500,000–$800,000, it could exceed the 2013 sale price of about $671,000. With fewer than 75 Apple I units surviving and even fewer operational, this historic machine—tied to Apple's founding era and including a Jobs-authored trade‑in letter—highlights the device’s rarity and significance. Bonhams will tour Los Angeles, Boston, San Francisco, and New York ahead of the October sale.
