SUPERMAN (1978)/SUPERMAN II (1980) - Pair of Daily Planet Newspaper Covers - Two Daily Planet newspaper covers from Richard Donner's Superman and Richard Lester's Superman II.

This lot consists of two black-and-white Daily Planet covers, one headlined "Twin Nuclear Missiles Test Confirmed" and one headlined "White House Surrenders" alongside pictures of Zod and the President. Both feature unrelated filler text printed throughout. The Superman II cover exhibits horizontal fold lines and small tears from production. Dimensions: 24" x 17" (61 cm x 43.25 cm)
