Three international newspaper covers with Superman (Christopher Reeve) stories from Richard Lester's Superman III. International newspapers reported on Superman's apparent change in morality as he wreaked havoc across the world. Several newspaper styles were made for production but ultimately unseen in the final cut.

This set consists of three black-and-white, production-made news stock covers: a French-language Le Figaro cover headlined "Le Scandal de Superman"; an Italian-language Corriere Della Sera cover with pictures of Superman and the Leaning Tower of Pisa; and a Japanese-language cover with a picture of Superman dated "1982." Unrelated filler text is printed throughout all three covers. They exhibit horizontal fold lines, some discoloration, and light tearing. Dimensions: (each) 24" x 17" (61 cm x 43.25 cm)

Estimate: $1,500 - 3,000
