Stunning full set of four long-stem wine glasses (goblets) etched with the iconic Apple Computer logo, each 9.75˝ in height, which were presented to Apple employees in December 1982 when the company celebrated eclipsing $1 billion in sales.
Includes its rare original presentation slipcase with inner Styrofoam packing; the front of the box reads, “For a Billion Dollar Achievement, December 1982,” and the back of the box bears a printed statement from Apple CEO Mike ‘A. C.’ Markkula, which reads: “To All Employees: The enclosed wine goblets have been designed especially for the employees of Apple Computer to commemorate our company's achieving ONE BILLION DOLLAR sales rate. Rastal Corporation is by far the most prominent name in German crystal and one of the most distinguished artisan houses in all of Europe. The design studio is under the direction of the world renowned designer Hermann Hoffmann who has been awarded thirty-five international design awards in the last five years. Each leaded crystal wine goblet has been individually mouth-blown in one piece and exemplifies the very finest in skilled craftsmanship. Slight imperfections such as small bubbles and varying stem thicknesses are testimony to the individual quality of each hand-made piece. The quality of this gift is in keeping with our philosophy of excellence in everything we do. I hope these wine goblets will provide you with many years of enjoyment. Thank you for your continuing contributions to Apple's success.” In overall fine condition, with noticeable wear to the slipcase, including scuffs, and small dents and tears.
