Superman Costumes in the Marketplace Round-Up: April, May

May 13, 2008 By Jason DeBord

There has been a few Superman costume/costume component auctions offered publicly in the marketplace via eBay since the last OPB updates in early April. This is part of the ongoing series of articles about costumes in the marketplace attributed to use by Christopher Reeve in the Superman films of the 70s and 80s (see “Questions About Superman Costumes in the Marketplace: Authenticity, Sources, Quantity“).

These are new auction listings since the last update, about one month ago (see “Superman Costumes in the Marketplace Round-Up: February, March, April“). Some have been relisted multiple times.

High Resolution Archive: ia1327 eBay Listing – “SUPERMAN MOVIE PROP- S SHIELD EMBLEM FROM CAPE FRAMED“

Description:

YOU ARE BIDDING ON A VERY RARE YELLOW S SHIELD EMBLEM FROM ONE OF THE RED CAPES FROM THE SUPERMAN MOVIES STARRING CHRISTOPHER REEVE.

THE S HAS BEEN PROFESSIONALLY FRAMED AND MATTED. THE PICTURE DOES NOT DO THE ITEM JUSTICE.

ITEM IS ACCOMPANIED WITH A LETTER FROM SUPER HOLLYWOOD IN FLORIDA AND SIGNED BY ANA MUNGIA (WARDROBE MGM STUDIOS AND CREATIVE DESIGN)

THE LETTER READS, “This is to certify that the yellow S Shield emblem was given to me as a personal gift during the Salkinds, work on their Superboy production (late 1980s early 1990s) The above is true and correct. It is believed to have been used in the production of their Superman movies of the late 1970’s starring Christopher Reeve. It is believed to have been used and removed from one of the red wool capes worn in the movie. Thank you”

kronickentertainment is the eBay seller for this auction (eBay Item #200223651847):

“Superman C. Reeve Worn Movie Costume”

High Resolution Archive: kronickentertainment eBay Listing – “Superman C. Reeve Worn Movie Costume“

Description:

We are proud to present…..

This is one of the actual screen worn S Logo’s which was attached to Christopher Reeve’s screen worn Superman cape. Included with the emblem is an actual oversized section of the cape itself which was removed following filming. Unlike many Superman items that have surfaced in the past years this artifact has a hand signed letter from Anastasia Salkind, who is the daughter of the film’s producer. This is the first Superman item we have encountered with Salkind provinence and authenticity. An amazing item from an amazing film.

Salkind Letter:

This Superman movie yellow cape “S” emblem is believed to be one of the original Christopher Reeve Superman principal emblems from our movie of the late 1970’s. It is one of the hero costume pieces and consists of yellow “S” emblem on original red cape fabric.

I am releasing a few of the items from my personal collection to private collectors.

Anastasia M. Salkind
