Steve Jobs & Waz Signatures Inside Mac Plus Case...

[bryphotoguy]

I was going to take apart a Mac Plus I got on from Craigslist and possibly turn it into a aquarium. I finally got the case open and this is what I found. It's a ton of signatures including Jobs and Woz's. They are raised sigs on the inside of the plastic case.
Is this anything special? Is this worth anything?

Signing Party?

Thanks for the link.
This will definitely make for one cool aquarium. I will be able to see most of the signatures through the hole in the front.

All of the original Macs had the signatures, including the Plus, SE, and SE-30. It's not rare.

You'll have to take a pic and show us all. That will be an awesome tank with all the signatures.

We will all be looking forward to seeing your "signature series" aquarium.

Like SASouth said, it's in all the older Macs with the same design. I hadn't stumbled across anything mentioning the signatures in the case on any of the aquarium mod sites I found. It's something I would have found cool enough to mention if I was building a how-to site.

I will definitely post some pics when I get it up and running. I am thinking about putting some lights inside the case right around where the CRT was. It should (I hope) shine a bunch of light back on to the signatures.

 

[MacHeadCase]

Yeah you have to find a way to get an angle with the lighting to highlight those etchings.

In my working old Mac collection I have a 512, Plus and SE with the signatures. Very cool.

We are "etching" to see it.

I have a Mac SE/30 and it is signed also. I was not aware that the oters were signed.

Me, too! I'm on the etch of my seat!

LOL !!

This makes me want to go home and crack open my Plus to see if there is anything in there!

What a great pick up line... "Come and see my Woz etchings"
