March 6, 2012: Fundraising Continues for Cleveland Airport Superman Display

A reminder that the Siegel & Shuster Society in collaboration with the Cleveland City Council is working to set up a display at Cleveland Hopkins International Airport to welcome folks to the Man of Steel's hometown.

With the expected cost of the display estimated at around $40,000 to $50,000, the Society continues to raise funds, with an anonymous donor tipping in a generous $5,000 contribution which was quickly matched by writer Brad Meltzer.

Superman fans willing to make a donation to the project can send payments to the Siegel & Shuster Society at 7100 Euclid Ave., Cleveland, OH 44103. Funds are managed by the Cleveland Foundation.
