And check out OUR NEWLY LISTED ITEMS. This is a fantastic full-color cardstock poster print of the cover to Superman #1, one of the most classic Golden Age issues. There is no information on either the front or the back side (which is blank), regarding publishing information or the date these were made. This is the original name for DC National Periodical Publications, Inc. , and is also found in the same spot on the classic comic covers plaques that were made in the mid-1970’s (I believe mainly in 1974). So that would indicate these were made at the same time, particularly as there is an identical version of this in plaque form that came out in 1974. It is in very good undisplayed condition, with no pinholes, tears, or other major wear commonly seen on vintage posters or prints, and measures approximately 10 1/4″ by 14 1/4″. It’s on a cardstock type of paper, which is flexible, but thick enough that it can’t really be rolled. This is an amazing Superman collectible, and should be in the collection of every true fan. It would look fantastic displayed, particularly if you decide to have it framed. The cover to Superman #1 is likely one of the most important and most recognized covers to ever grace a comic book. It is also one of the most distinctive covers ever done. Superman #1 is the all-time classic comic issue which featured the full origin of Superman (Clark Kent), who along with Batman would become one of the 2 most important comic figures of the 20th century. Originally published in the Summer of 1939 by DC Comics, this is one of the single most valuable comics ever published, with values established well into the tens of thousands of dollars. It included story and art by legendary creators Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, who launched their famous creation in his own title in this issue, after first being introduced in the pages of Action Comics. The cover features an incredible mid-air iconic image of the Man of Steel. To overstate the importance of this issue would really not be possible, as it is a landmark not only in comic history, but in pop culture and American history as well. This issue was one of the landmarks of the comic book explosion and Golden Age, so it is hard to think of a comic cover that a collector could more proudly display. These prints are incredibly difficult to find, and very rarely surface for sale. Don’t miss a rare opportunity to add this fantastic piece to your collection.
