One-Sheet (27" x 41")
Fine- on Linen
Columbia, 1950

Columbia Studios got the jump on their competitors to the screen rights to DC Comics' hero, Superman. Kirk Alyn stars in the second production as The Man of Steel.

The poster has been professionally mounted on linen and restored, fixing previous issues, including wear to the folds with scattered separation, chipping, and paper loss, especially in the upper and lower vertical and horizontal folds. There has been airbrushing to the borders and sporadic touchups to fold lines, sporadic creases, and tiny tears. Most of the character images are clean, and the poster now presents wonderfully.

The second serial starring Kirk Alyn as Superman - the first person to ever play the Man of Steel. Superman's nemesis Lex Luthor (Lyle Talbot), aka The Atom Man, threatens Metropolis by creating a disintegration machine; then, after his plans are foiled, Luthor works out how to synthesise Kryptonite.

Estimate: $1,200 - 2,400
