Color glossy 12 x 7.5 print entitled 'Mobile Muscle' affiliated with Apple's PowerBook 1400 notebook computer, matted and framed to an overall size of 20 x 16 with a small rainbow Apple emblem in the lower right corner. The frame's backing is signed and inscribed to Apple 'color guru' Bob Flores in black felt tip and colored pencil by eight members of Apple's design team, including Richard Howarth, who would go on to lead the design of each generation of iPhone from 2007 to 2015. Howarth writes, "Bob… You're a bloody genius! Thanks for all those all-nighters. Richard Howarth," sketching Apple's rainbow 'byte' logo above. This 'Mobile Muscle' graphic was used as one of several interchangeable 'BookCover' art skins issued with the Powerbook 1400, which allowed users to customize the look of their laptops. In fine condition, with scattered marks and soiling to reverse.
From the collection of Apple ‘color guru’ Robert Flores.
