Mike,

It translates as "Superman In The Lost World", or close to that. I'm
sure you knew this already.

IMDB is no help with that title, alas.

Dr. Vollin, MD knows a bit about these cards. Maybe this title, V?

For those of you who care about the care and feeding of Mexican lobby
cards, one of Dr V's most popular articles was on the subject:

Blood on the Jalapeno: Collecting Mexican Lobby Cards

Worth a revisit, I say.
