Man those are classic...

Boring's art, classic thick Supes with tri part stomach muscles...

Swan, a master that actually knew that emphasizing quadraceps muscles that don't exist (see the Death of Superman cover recently posted) don't make Superman "super"...

And -- the Schustere Lois as the distant and beautiful model that looks like no woman ever did in real life, but is strangely compelling...

That first one was reprinted in "Men of Tomorrow" last year, and the guy in the suit is actually the lawyer Jerry and Joe hired in their legal fight against DC in the late 40s.  About a year later they weren't so enamored of him.  :?

I think his name was Zugsmith...or Zug-something.

Yes, yes she is...even IF she conforms to 1930s standards of not really even having a nose!
