Yes, it indeed comes with COA and provenance that would make you very comfortable in acquiring this very special piece of movie history. One letter is Anna Mungia with Super Hollywood (one of the costumers for the Salkind family and worked for them for both movie and tv productions of Superman and Superboy), verifying the authenticity of the cape and says it was given to her as a gif for her work on the show, a part of the inventory of Disney MGM Studios in Florida. Also from Anastacia Salkind, the wife of Ilya Salkind, the producer of Superman. It will have the collector\u2019s letter as well as certificate of authenticity. The cape also has been signed on the inside shoulder pad by both Margo Kidder (Lois Lane) and Marc McClure (Jimmy Olsen).<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>You probably know the one that sold at the recent celebrity auction went for over $100,000. This one is priced at $84,995 and on our spring sale, I can offer it to you for $72,250 plus $300 shipping\/crating\/insurnace. If you would like it, please give me a call. Or if you wish to purchase via email, please provide full shipping address, phone and credit card information. I look forward to hearing from you and also feel free to call if you want further information and we can discuss size, presentation, and any other questions.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Be well!<br \/>\nJames Dabrowski<br \/>\nManager<br \/>\nAntiquities (702) 792-2274<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>ooo<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>From: Jason De Bord &lt;jason@originalpropblog.com&gt;<br \/>\nTo: antiquitieslv@aol.com<br \/>\nSent: Sun, 6 Apr 2008 2:02 pm<br \/>\nSubject: RE: Superman Costume<br \/>\n<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Mr. Dabrowski,<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Thank you for the response and information.
