A must have for Apple Computer merchandise collectors!
This is a [1998] "Apple Center Crystal Mouse pad" [not for sale].
This piece was presented to "Apple Center," a distributor brand given by "Apple Computer" to partners who were qualified to handle Apple products and "iMacs" at the time of the launch of the first-generation "iMac" around 1998. It is said that only the number of units on display on the day of the launch were distributed, and that only the "Canon-01Shop" sales partner at the time and one store in each of the four major cities were authorized and displayed in their storefronts.
Therefore, this piece with the AppleCenter logo is very rare and valuable.
It is recommended to display it as a "tapestry" or framed piece. Indirect lighting will bring out the letters "Apple Computer" and create a very beautiful silhouette.
We would be happy if you could hand it over to an Apple fan and display it with care.
This is a gem that shows the expectation of AppleCenter, the company that certified Apple for Japanese users who have consistently supported Apple even in the declining years of Apple, not to mention its extremely high rarity value.
Because of the way it was distributed, it is thought that there are very few of the same item in existence, so we think it would be a great treasured item for Apple collectors.
