Apparently the Superman 75th Anniversary Costume Tour made a stop at the fair.  Highlights include Christopher Reeve's costume from Superman III:


Dean Cain's costume from Lois & Clark:


Brandon Routh's costume from Superman Returns:

Jor-El:


And Faora:


Maybe the exhibit will fly to your town soon!
