Lithograph of Steve Jobs 'Mac On Lap' Photo Available For Purchase

Signed and numbered Limited Edition Prints of Norman Seeff's 'Mac On Lap' photo of Steve Jobs are now available for purchase, reports iPhoneSavior.
In 1984, Norman was called up to Cupertino, California and tasked with the assignment of photographing Apple's Macintosh design team. It was that very session where Norman captured the image of Steve Jobs sitting on the floor in lotus position with the original Apple Macintosh centered on his lap.
That iconic image, featured on the cover of Time Magazine and on the back cover of Walter Isaacson's biography of Steve Jobs, is now being released as a collectible lithograph by Norman Seeff almost 30 years later.
iPhoneSavior has the great story of how the photo came to be. It was not a 'posed photograph'; rather, it was captured during a spontaneous moment during an extended photo shoot.
"We were two guys having fun goofing off. You know, that's the magic of the kind of photography that delivers these kinds of shots," Norman said. "It's not like I have four contact sheets of the same shot and we go ok this is the best one - that's one shot!"
"And then there are shots on either side and each one of them is different. A lot of them, by the way, are equally good and can sustain but that particular one somehow, illustrated the multidimensional reality of the moment. We had no idea that this would end up on the cover of his autobiography - we were just having fun."
