A Wilkes Bashford brand brown leather bomber-style jacket worn by Steve Jobs. A photograph of Jobs wearing this jacket while flipping the bird to an IBM sign has since become iconic. Quoting Andy Hertzfeld on the origin of the photograph, “In December 1983, a few weeks before the Mac launch, we made a quick trip to New York City to meet with Newsweek , who was considering doing a cover story on the Mac. The photo was taken spontaneously as we walked around Manhattan by Jean Pigozzi, a wild French jet setter who was hanging out with us at the time.” PROVENANCE From the caretakers of the Jackling House (1984-1990) Categories: Steve Jobs
