Apple founder, Steve Jobs and Bill Gates founder of Microsoft are two of the most creative minds of the 20th Century responsible for personal and professional computing as we know it today. Bill Gates has boldly signed this spectacular 11x14 color photograph taken of the famed duo as “youngsters” in what looks like a brain storming session. Interestingly, in character of the Apple vs. Microsoft wars fought over the years, Jobs is barefooted, dressed in counter establishment casual attire while Gates bears more of the corporate resemblance in his collared white shirt and dress slacks. Gates founded technology giant Microsoft in 1975 upon leaving Harvard University in his junior year and today is one of the richest men in the world. Signed in blue Sharpie. Historic and rare photo depicting two legends who ushered in the computer age. Authenticated by James Spence Authentication (Sticker Only).
