How can you go wrong with Curt Swan? Although he was not the Legion's first interior artist, he did provide the cover to Adventure Comics #247, the Legion's first appearance, and was the artist most associated with the Sixties' Legion. Here we have Curt Swan doing a great illustration of the Founders and Superboy....truly, the five "characters" who started this whole thing. Inks are by Murphy Anderson.

Adventure Comics #247 (the debut of the Legion of Super-Heroes)
Adventure Comics #267
Action Comics #267 (the debut of Colossal Boy, Chameleon Boy, and Invisible Kid)
Superboy #86 (Lex Luthor learns about the Legion)
Adventure Comics #282 (the debut of Star Boy)
Action Comics #276 (the debut of Phantom Girl, Triplicate Girl, Shrinking Violet, Bouncing Boy, Sun Boy, and Brainiac 5!)

Events:
Cosmic Boy is the leader for the first two years of the Legion. Time travel is the buzz phrase of this collection, as Legionnaires go back and forth in time to team up with Superboy, Supergirl, and SuperMAN! We end at the beginning of the third year, as Saturn Girl is elected leader just in time to not prevent the sacrifice of Lightning Lad.
The 9 are currently on eBay as a collection - for $300.
