When the Superman Comics character first appeared in print in 1943, it was in a World War II era Armed Forces magazine strip called SuperSam. SuperSam , and thereby Superman , were created by two GI’s during the War: Ben Bryan and Jerry Siegel. Siegel later went on the develop the Superman character into the Man of Steel we all know , along with his new partner Jerry Schuster. Siegel and Schuster then sold the rights - for a paltry sum - to DC Comics . But before it all became famous , this 15x13" original artwork was its origin. First published in the GI magazines, this original ink drawing is the only surviving artwork from the very limited edition SuperSam comics , and thus a rare classic that any Superman collector would relish owning.
This is the original artwork , not a page from the comics. It was given by artist Ben Bryan to his artist son , Michael Bryan; and has been in Michael’s collection since his father passed away in 1975. It comes with a Certificate of Authenticity from Michael Bryan and a B&W photograph of Ben Bryan & Jerry Schuster taken during WWII. Ship weight approx. 16lbs. Unframed but mounted.
