Superman: from the origins of Siegel and Shuster to a collectible symbol

Machine translation; original text in Italian.
Work created by Bob Kane e Bill Finger (Batman); Jerry Siegel e Joe Shuster (Superman)
The origins
Superman was born in 1938 from the collaboration of Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, as DC recalls in the story of Action Comics.
An emblem as a starting point
Superman debuts in Action Comics in 1938, created from Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster. The name of the character crosses generations of stories: for a personal reading you can ask yourself which gesture of protection or which choice has left an impression on you. A familiar symbol can become the point from which you return to the pages.
Distinguish memory and object
Not every object with the same emblem recalls the same adaptation. Check costume version, edition name and manufacturer, without deducing details from the image alone. For a collection compare style and size; for an accessory evaluate the intended use. The connected DC cards allow you to explore the possibilities, checking availability and features before purchasing.
