Apple Rainbow Logo - Iconic 1977-1998 Brand Identity #1479817 (License: Personal Use)

This version of the Apple logo, introduced in 1977 and used until 1998, features six horizontal stripes-green, yellow, orange, red, purple, and blue-with a green leaf and the registered trademark symbol. Designed by Rob Janoff, it embodied Apple’s commitment to accessibility, creativity, and user-friendly computing during the personal computer revolution. The bite mark was added both for scale reference and to distinguish the fruit from a cherry.

Used in historical tech articles, brand evolution timelines, design retrospectives, and museum exhibits; matches user intent for learning about Apple’s branding history or vintage tech aesthetics.
