Archive, Authenticated vs. &#8220;Super Hollywood&#8221;<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>What I truly missed was a very high resolution close-up shot of the very unique, very custom specially produced fabric which was used to make these costumes.\u00a0 The nature of this fabric has been touched on countless times in past articles, the costumes were produced in the 70s under the supervision of Noel Howard by Bermans and Nathans, based on designs form Yvonne Blake, and made from a radical, specially formulated fabric by a single, now defunct weaving machine in Germany.\u00a0 This fabric is highly, highly unique in weave, texture, weight, color, and design.\u00a0 It is also very soft and flexible, and &#8220;catches light&#8221; in a very extraordinary manner.<\/p>\n<p>In any event, following my trip, Brandon Alinger of <a href=\"http:\/\/propstore.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">The Prop Store of London &#8211; Los Angeles<\/a> was kind enough to take a few of the photos that I needed for my records and archvies, including an extreme close-up of this remarkable fabric, which I believe shows detail and clairty which has never before been made available to the public.\u00a0 The following photos are of the Superman top made for wear by Margot Kidder as Lois Lane as seen in the &#8220;Donner Cut&#8221; of <em>Superman II<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Below is a &#8220;raw&#8221;
