Item Description
This premium was briefly issued in late 1939/early 1940 in "Action Comics" and "Superman" comic books and was obtained by recruiting three friends to join the Supermen of America Club. Large 5.5" dia. emblem/patch is one of the very earliest Superman premiums and was originally advertised as a "Superman Emblem." Unlike other similar patches which are just felt, this is made of two thin layers of felt and sandwiched between these layers is a thin sheet of cardboard which gives the patch a high degree of stiffness although it flexes under pressure. Front has choice silk-screened design featuring classic image of Superman breaking chains surrounded by "Supermen Of America - Action Comics" text. This is rare variety w/fleshtone coloring on face/hands and yellow bordering "S" chest symbol (see previous item). Emblem/patch has moderate age spotting to white portions/edges and obvious aging/staining to back, but has no creases and silk-screened design remains strong w/deep, bold color. VG/Fine overall. Obtained by same family as previous and following lot.
