Here's the description:

You are viewing the original cover art to the DC World's Finest Comic when it presented "Superman and the Flash" for the November 1970 issue No.198. The headline for the cover is "They're off! The third race between the world's fastest super-heroes! And this time there must be a winner!". In this issue both Superman and Flash were in a race with each other to save the universe. This piece is part of a liquidated Palm Beach estate and was purchased many years ago in a comic art gallery in New York. It has been displayed in a clear plexiglass frame for safe keeping.

Comic art measures approximately 11.5" x 17.5". Frame dimensions are 16" x 20".

Comic art is in very good condition considering its age. No visible surface or edge wear and minor staining in certain areas. True collectors would appreciate the VALUE of this original comic art. Would make for a great gift this holiday season for any avid comic collectors. Auction is being offered with a low starting price and no reserve.
