Description

Superman Secret Chamber Initial Ring (Ostby and Barton, 1941) Condition: FN. This incredibly scarce premium ring was originally offered in conjunction with the Defense Club Milk Program for ten cents and two bottle lids. Kids got to pick their initial, which went next to the "mystic eye" on the front panel. This panel pops off to reveal a red, white, and blue paper sticker with the image of Superman on the reverse side. Hake's suggests only 27 reported known copies, with only 13 in Fine or better condition. We're calling this one a conservative Fine; no dents, scratches, or other physical problems, other than a bit of the finish missing from the band and inside. The tiny Superman image is sharp and clean. A fantastic item! Listed in Hake's Price Guide to Character Toys with a Fine value of $4,500.
