Highlighted and Special Items:

The Macintosh Human Interface Guidelines book is one of the most important Apple publications ever produced and is highly collectible.
The Apple II And Apple DOS programming books are increasingly rare and sought after by early Apple developers and historians.
Early Macintosh technical and system manuals were often discarded and are now difficult to find in complete and original condition.
The Mac OS X 10.1 documentation represents the transition period from classic Mac OS to modern macOS and is highly interesting from a historical perspective.

Included In This Collection (Selection):

– Apple II Owner’s Manual
– Macintosh SE/30 User Manual
– Macintosh Plus User Manual
– Macintosh Technical Introduction To The Macintosh Family
– Apple IIc Technical Reference Manual
– Apple SCSI Cable System Documentation

Condition:
Overall condition ranges from good to very good for vintage printed materials of this age.
Some books show normal signs of use, storage wear, or aging, which is expected and adds authenticity and character.
All items are original Apple publications and come from a private collection.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial Apple documentation archive in one single lot.
The entire collection will be packed extremely carefully, using protective materials, to ensure safe arrival.

A unique and educational Apple collection that is becoming increasingly difficult to assemble today.
