This seems to mean "superciliousness" :

2005 http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0131486861/103-6380914-7703000?v=glance&n=283155&%5Fencoding=UTF8&v=glance (Oct. 11) :  I find it difficult to overlook the senselessness and banality of various sarcastic quips sprinkled throughout the book, and the odd cavalcade of provincialism, pretentiousness and superbity that bears the tone of a speaker whose social consciousness is far too rooted in the 19th century.

Only a few dozen Googlits, but it's listed as a "Worthless Word of the Day" at a site of that name.
