On the originals' reverse, a stamp indicates: "Project assigned 6/11/40; completed 6/19/40; rejected 6/24/40". Penciled notes explain the planned poster was cancelled by H. Donenfeld for "lack (of) cooperation between Macy's, World's Fair, and Superman, Inc." An error- 'Macy's Toyland' not 'Macy's and Toyland' is also cited.
