    Price Check: T1 Superman

    I'd like to pick up a MINT T1 Superman with stirrups, sewn sleeves, skinny boots, and nylon trunks; what could I reasonably expect to pay? What about one with a large "S", are they next to impossible to find, and what would that cost ? Thanks for any input.

    A mint T1 Large S Supes (by definition, would have the skinny boots/stirrups/nylon trunks) would probably go for several hundred.
    I want to say the last one on ebay, within the last 18 months, went for $400 or so

    If it also had the large S on the cape, possibly double, or triple that,
    although I can't recall a mint, 2 sticker figure ever coming to auction.

      Didnt Roberto have one up for grabs at the meet? I recall it was a skinny boot early version with large S.

        A regular Type 1 Superman with the specs you require in mint condition will run you between $150-200...the skinny boots are highly sought after.

        And Rob is right...this figure with the Large S sticker will cost significantly more.

          How much could one expect to pay for "Large S" Type 1 Superman with Skinny Boots and at least an average (Not torn) sticker?

            I have a large S Skinny boot Supes on Kresge card and every time I look at him I wonder... "does he have one on the back of his cape?" Probably not, since I think those only came in solid boxes.

              I have pristine mint off Kresge card Large S Superman. The boot is neither skinny or regular, but something in between. These boots are easily mistaken for Skinny in jpegs in auctions. A Large S decal is a rare thing of beauty and difficult to find on a Superman loose and mint. Mitch I can't believe what i am reading a Large S Supes sold for $765? Wow!
