Description

Superman and the Mole Men (Lippert, 1951). One Sheet (27" X 41").
After two successful serials, the Man of Steel was recruited into his first feature film, with George Reeves replacing Kirk Alyn in the title role. Mole Men served as a de facto pilot for the TV series that followed, and in fact was eventually edited down and broadcast as a two-part episode of the series. Clark Kent, Jimmy Olsen, and Lois Lane arrive in a small town to find that denizens of the underworld have been terrorizing the citizens in response to recent drilling operations that have disturbed their hidden lair. This outstanding poster has a great shot of George Reeves in an iconic pose. Fold wear with crossfold separations and pinholes in the borders and image area are the only condition issues to note, and these have been smoothed over with professional restoration, including touch-ups to the folds. Very Fine- on Linen.
