"Superman (1978)
Authentic cape and costume. The cape was made specifically for Christopher Reeve's flying scenes in the first Superman movie.
Two years after his Broadway debut, Reeve was chosen from a pool of more than two hundred hopefuls to play Superman --
his patrician features, strong physique, and charming humility breathed life into the comic book hero.
Reeve was thereafter a familiar presence on both stage and screen. Superman was one of Hollywood's first blockbuster event films."
