Superman #169 published May 1964 Notes:
Also known as "The Great DC Contest!" The contest of this story is that the letters D and C only appeared once, at the bottom of page 3 as "CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE FOLLOWING". But the irony is in this reprint, DC eliminated that caption, while still challenging the reader to find the hidden letters!
