Quote from: "binarysunrise"
This is from an article about the Superman musical, published in March 1966.  I don't remember seeing this Hirshfield drawing before...




The illo appeared in the NY Sunday Times article on the play (possibly a review).  I know because I had clipped it... back then.

Yea, that's where its from.  Do you want me to post the whole article?  I have more lengthy articles (like for the macy's parade) that I can post.  There is also a good one of DC claiming that comics sales aren't declining...its funny.
