Description
From 1980! Published in The Art of John Byrne! by Sal Q Productions

I'm told that this is the first time Byrne and Austin worked on Superman together. If anyone can confirm either way, that would be appreciated. I'm also told that this was in a portfolio. If anyone has any leads, please let me know.

No, but my guesstimate was an aborted Superman portfolio, due to the number of plate-like pin-ups by Byrne & Austin.  Since that publication more pin-ups have trickled out, including a great Supergirl in the most recent Heritage auction—totally my speculation tho!

Incredible piece by a truly legendary art team !! I love those kind of firsts.
