“超人”服装将于本月拍卖

Superman costume up for grabs



An Bonhams & Goodman employee makes adjustments to a Superman outfit worn by actor Christopher Reeve, and which is up for auction in Melbourne

A Superman costume worn by the late Christopher Reeve will go under the hammer in Australia this month, auction house Bonhams and Goodman said yesterday.

Auctioneer Giles Moon said the costume, complete with the famous "S" logo, was being sold by an avid film buff who bought it in London five years ago.

He said it was expected to fetch Australian dollars 15,000-20,000 ($11,400-15,200 US) when it is auctioned on May 24.

"Superman costumes rarely appear on the market and are much sought after by collectors," Moon said. The outfit comes without boots and Superman's red cape. Reeve wore the leotard in the 1983 film Superman III, while the red trunks and yellow belt came from his debut as the Man of Steel in Superman The Movie in 1978.

据邦汉姆斯•古德曼拍卖行昨日介绍，已故明星克里斯多夫•里弗（译者注：超人扮演者）在影片中所穿的“超人”服装将于本月在澳大利亚拍卖。

拍卖人吉利斯•姆恩说，这套带有著名“S”标志的超人服装的卖主是一名忠实的影迷，他于五年前在伦敦购得这套服装。

他说，这套超人服装将于本月24日拍卖，预计可拍得1.5万至2万澳元（1.14万至1.52万美元）。

姆恩说：“超人服装在市场上很难见到，因此深受收藏家们的追捧。”这套服装未配靴子和超人的红色披肩一同拍卖。这套紧身连衣裤是里弗在1983年的影片《超人3》中所穿，但红色短裤和黄色腰带则来自于他在1978年的《超人1》中首次亮相时的装扮。当时他在该片中饰演“钢铁战士”。
