The characters seen here is the Earth-One version.
Given the year that this story takes place, circa 1924, is not the early life of the Golden Age Superman, and much too early to be the early years of the Silver Age Superman, it will still be indexed as part of the latter's character. These adventures probably take place on another, unnamed, alternate Earth.
