Apple IIc-6

CARRYING BAG The left photo is genuine carrying bag for IIc. Made by DuPont CORDURA NYLON. IIc It is partitioned so that IIc body, power supply, and mouse can be stored separately. There is a net on the inside of the upper cover and it can store software etc. It is characterized that the Apple logo is arranged diagonally on the front upper left. The color is pretty fancy with blue gray. |
 |
IIc weighs 3.4 kilos and the size is about 29.2 x 30.4 x 5.7 cm, giving priority to convenience and ease of use in compensation for sacrificing expandability including seven external card slots. The photo is the carrying bag with IIS PLUS owned by Mr. Shinichiro Saka. There was another plastic carrying case for IIc made by CANON, and it seems that it was delivered for promotion when IIc was released in Japan. |

IIc MANUAL Initial manual released in 1984. There were unusual red covers as manual of apple computer. The manuals on the left photo are from the upper left, System Utilities, Setting Up Your Apple IIC, Apple Presents the Apple IIC, An Interactive Owner 's Guide, Apple IIC Imagewriter User's Manual and IIc Scribe printer User's Manual. |

In the manual of Setting Up your Apple IIc, you can worship the face of a mysterious woman whose face is not shown in an outer box or catalog, but there are rumors that it is a different person. The manual of IIc Mouse has been confirmed in this red cover manual series. The following year in 1985, both this red series manuals and outer boxes had been changed to those of ordinary white color. It is unknown whether cost was taken too much or reputation was poor by business users, they are colorful and I like them very much. The photo is the transition of the manual of IIc. From the left, IIc (1984), IIc (1985), and IIc Plus (1988), you can see that they are becoming unrepentant. |

The left photo is IIc brochures. On the upper left is Canon's catalog which was originally released. It is the same design as the manual. The upper right is the IIc general brochure made by USA. It was made in January 1985 when Scribe Printer and Flat Panel Display etc. were introduced, so it is rare and valuable material. The bottom line is the introduction brochure made By Canon Sales in Japan. Macintosh had already been released at that time, Apple IIc would be struggling in terms of sales due to its poor performance, but this software catalog has become an attractive structure, and it seems that apple sales division effort strongly to sell IIc and its software.

IIc LOGO ( Apple Lampel Pin ) There are pin batches with apple logo. They are Apple Works, IIc, IIe, 6 Color Logo, AppleLink, MacOS, eMate from the top left. IIc The designers of the era of IIc seemed to prefer to arrange the logo diagonally, and this obliquely arranged logo is also used for the aforementioned bags, software disks, and T-shirts, etc. However, it seems that there was no rule in the direction of leaning, and they were leaning to the right or leaning to the left. |
 |
The bottom left photo is the integrated software AppleWorks. It has word processor and database, spreadsheet function. Notice the diskette logo. Apple is placed diagonally in white with red back. AppleWorks for Apple II will be transferred to CLARIS at a later time, and the package design will also change to a more familiar one, but this is the early one. According to the original concept, this package was appeared the photo of People using personal computer. |

In this series, there is Apple Access II as communication accessories and Apple LOGO IIc as educational software. Both packages are designed of same concept. |
