This costume does appear to have heavier blue fabric with a larger weave, as has been observed with the Superman costumes that had Warner Bros. COAs (such as the Prop Store &#8220;Superman III Flying Suit&#8221; sold in February 2008, the &#8220;Prop Store Collection&#8221; costume currently on display at the Movieum, and the ScreenUsed &#8220;Superman III Bodysuit&#8221; sold on their website some time ago).  I cannot tell from the photos if it is the same fabric\/weave, but it certainly differs significantly from the &#8220;Superman III Reference Costume&#8221; that I published high resolution photos of (see &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.originalprop.com\/blog\/?p=1688\" target=\"_blank\">Photo Reference Archive<\/a>&#8220;).<\/p>\n<p>Here is a comparison showing the photo of the costume now being offered at auction by Bonhams, a scan of the publicity still from the upcoming June 2008 Bonhams auction in Los Angeles, the &#8220;Prop Store Collection&#8221; costume currently on display at the Movieum, and the &#8220;Superman III Reference Costume&#8221;:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.originalprop.com\/blog\/dylsoagh\/2008\/05\/bonhams-auction-v-bonhams-publicity-v-prop-store-v-superman-iii.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2647\" title=\"bonhams-auction-v-bonhams-publicity-v-prop-store-v-superman-iii-x425\" src=\"http:\/\/www.originalprop.com\/blog\/dylsoagh\/2008\/05\/bonhams-auction-v-bonhams-publicity-v-prop-store-v-superman-iii-x425.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"425\" height=\"945\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">High Resolution Archive: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.originalprop.com\/blog\/dylsoagh\/2008\/05\/bonhams-auction-v-bonhams-publicity-v-prop-store-v-superman-iii.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">Superman Costume Comparison<\/a><\/p>\n<p>One other point of comparison &#8211; the cut of the neckline on the Bonhams &#8220;Superman IV Flying Suit&#8221; and the &#8220;Superman III Flying Suit&#8221; sold by Prop Store of London earlier this year are similar:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.originalprop.com\/blog\/dylsoagh\/2008\/05\/bonhams-v-prop-store-superman-iv-costume.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2649\" title=\"bonhams-v-prop-store-superman-iv-costume-x425\" src=\"http:\/\/www.originalprop.com\/blog\/dylsoagh\/2008\/05\/bonhams-v-prop-store-superman-iv-costume-x425.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"425\" height=\"694\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.originalprop.com\/blog\/dylsoagh\/2008\/05\/bonhams-v-prop-store-superman-iv-costume-x425.jpg 425w, https:\/\/www.originalprop.com\/blog\/dylsoagh\/2008\/05\/bonhams-v-prop-store-superman-iv-costume-x425-183x300.jpg 183w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 425px) 100vw, 425px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">High Resolution Archive: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.originalprop.com\/blog\/dylsoagh\/2008\/05\/bonhams-v-prop-store-superman-iv-costume.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">Bonhams &#8220;Superman IV Flying Suit&#8221; v Prop Store of London &#8220;Superman III Flying Suit&#8221;<\/a><\/p>\n<p>I can&#8217;t say whether the piece offered by Bonhams truly matches the publicity photo and\/or the Warner Bros.
