SUPERMAN MUSEUM, METROPOLIS, IL

Posted by Meryl (proud pinay)

The Superman Museum that attracts hundreds of visitors daily is just across the street from the statue of the Man of Steel. Before entering the museum, there's a gift shop where you can buy lots of superman shirts and memorabilia.


The Superman Museum is stuffed with thousands of movie props that were used from the 1st superman movie, toys, plastic figures, collectibles, souvenirs, promotional materials, mannequins with costumes, theater lobby cards and other superman products. The phone booth which was claimed to be used by the first actor who portrayed Superman in the film is also in the exhibit. The original costume of those who played as superman are there too as well as Clark Kent's eyeglasses and Christoper Reeves' wigs he wore in the movie. The villains' costumes from the movies are also displayed. If you are a Superman fan you will absolutely love the massive collection that was collected throughout the years.

Off topic, just a quick visit...

Just want to express my gratitude to all of you who offers us such a strong support to my family, with your prayers and encouraging words it lighten up the burdens we are feeling. We will be flying tonight going to the Philippines to attend to my brother's funeral.

I am sorry for not being able to visit. I'll visit you back when we come back. Please include us in your prayers especially my children, for them not to catch the h1n1 virus that is going around the country. Thank you all once again!
