THIS ONE IS, WELL, SUPER ...
The Item: Superman six-sheet (79-by-10 inch) movie poster (Columbia, 1948)
The Price: Bidding opens next week -- estimates as high as $20,000
Why it’s Buzz-worthy: This massive and iconic piece is a rare one that Heritage has sold a trio of times in recent decades with sales pushing as high as $35,850 back in 2018, which was an anniversary point for this film. "Kirk Alyn donned the cape as both Superman and his mild-mannered alter ego, Clark Kent, battling the sinister Spider Lady (Carol Forman) across 15 action-packed chapters filled with flight, flying bullets, and cliffhanger thrills,” reads the Heritage listing. “This scarce large-format poster -- one of only a few known -- captures the excitement of that landmark cinematic moment. Carefully applied airbrushing, touchup, and replacement have addressed edge and fold wear, creases, fold and crossfold separation, some tears, and a few chips. Owing to these efforts, it now presents quite well."

Neill went on to appear in 78 episodes of the Adventures of Superman television series that lasted six seasons and then have cameos in other Superman films as part of a career that spanned seven decades. She died on Monday at age 95 after a long illness.

"Brave, smart, and witty. She embodied the very best qualities of Lois Lane. RIP Noel Neill," read a message on the DC Comics Twitter account.
