Nick Cardy did something like that on one of his covers. (Sorry don't remember which cover, I was looking through a bunch & forgot to write down the info).

I'm wondering if maybe the mystery artist was using a number of different artists drawings as references to produce this pic?

jrvandore:
I'm glad someone revived this thread so I can say that I posted the images to the GCD crowd and they were fairly evenly split between "It's Swan" and "It's 'someone' mimicking Swan."  Just FYI.

bchat:
To my eyes, it looks like someone cobbled together bits & pieces of different comics.  The Superman figure itself appears to be drawn from at least two different images (his legs don't match the rest of his body).

philcom55:
I must say it looks pretty 'Swanny' (How I love ya, how I love ya!) to me - though it could be somebody trying to mimic his style.

As far as the emblem is concerned I'd guess that this scene is supposed to show the Superman of Earth 2 coming to the aid of his Earth 1 counterpart.
