Here is a look at Steve Jobs' business card from 1979. For its day, this was quite an impressive card having an embossed and stylized font for the logo.

The address listed, 10260 Bandley Drive Cupertino CA, is a street from the current Apple campus at 1 Infinite Loop and apparently the phone number still goes to Apple's switchboard.

Pascal Finette, Director Mozilla Labs, describes the photo: "I took the photo after a colleague brought the card into work the other day – the phone number on the card is still Apple’s main switch board."

"By the way – the one thing you can't see on the picture is the fact that the business card has an embossed Apple logo! So they definitely went all way out and spent quite some serious cash on their business cards (which doesn’t surprise me with Steve)."

Bet you didn't know that if you held this business card under the sunlight it will charge and when it is dark it will glow in the dark!! Also if you put it under UV light it will show the passcode for my current iphone 5.

Steve, was this before or after you ripped off the beetles' trademark?

Look at that subtle off-white coloring. The tasteful thickness of it. Oh my God, it even has a watermark!
