Very Fine Folded; Artwork by Bob Peak (One-Sheet)

In 1978, the world truly believed a man could fly after seeing this instant classic directed by Richard Donner and starring Christopher Reeve as the Man of Steel. With a cast that also included Marlon Brando, Gene Hackman, Margot Kidder, Ned Beatty, Glenn Ford, and Jackie Cooper, as well as a screenplay by Mario Puzo and a score by John Williams, no expense was spared in bringing this iconic character to life. Indeed, it was the most expensive film ever made at the time of its release, with a budget of $55 million, and set the stage for three sequels. Inducted into the National Film Registry in 2017, Superman is widely considered to be one of the finest superhero movies ever made.
