Vintage Unrestored Copy of "Superman #1" Available at Auction

by Neil Cole

An original, unrestored copy of "Superman #1" (CGC VG/FN 5.0) is currently up for bids through Heritage Auctions which offers the following description of the vintage comic book:

We've never offered a nicer unrestored copy of the issue that's firmly entrenched at #3 on Overstreet's Top 100 Golden Age Comics list. And while CGC has certified fewer of its older DC siblings, Action Comics #1 and Detective Comics #27, Superman #1 is actually more difficult to find in this grade and higher. Over the years we've seen far more restored copies of the iconic issue than unrestored.

Superman co-creators Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster provide the story and art for this premiere issue, which features the first pin-up of the Man of Steel on the back cover and retells the origin inside.

The auction is scheduled to end on Thursday, May 16th at 11:50AM (CST) and, as of this writing, the current bid is at $220,000 with no reserve price set.
