The schematic diagram features an interesting Apple logo that I've never seen before. I've always been told that the old-timey one on the cover of the manual was the only logo predating the six colors one with the bite out of it.

It also shows up in the word WARRANTY in the back of the manual: https://s3data.computerhistory.org/brochures/apple.applei.1976.102646518.pdf https://s3data.computerhistory.org/brochures/apple.applei.19...
