Last of My Batman Memorabilia

This is one of my Batman treasures.
I have no idea how many boxes of cereal I had to eat to get this.
This is an 8" x 10" (approximately) photo from the 1960's Batman tv series with Adam West and Burt Ward.

I think it was 1966 and
my mother did the legwork (and postal work) to get this to magically appear in the mail one day signed , as it was, to ME personally!
I was deliriously happy.
Be sure to check out my three previous posts showing my Batman trading cards from the 1960s.

My Batman Trading Cards, Part 1

One of my prized possessions is my collection of
Batman trading cards from the 1960s.

I know, I know, I'm a grown woman - whatever! I love this art!
The colors are vibrant and the action is detailed.
With the new Batman movie due out soon I thought I would share these with you.
I don't really care for the darker and more violent and troubled Batman
we are shown in the recent movies.
I like the old Batman television show
because it had comic-book action for the kids and

tongue-in-cheek humor for the parents. It didn't take itself or the genre too seriously.
I don't have the full set of these, I have 63 of these cards - the set is 55 - but
some of mine are repeats.
I hope you enjoy these. I do!

Here are some of Batman and Robin's arch enemies and the bone-crunching sounds of their defeat.






More Batman Trading Cards

Here is another batch of my Batman cards that I treasure. The nature of this Blog program makes it difficult to put this many images into one post so I am breaking it up into several posts.This is what the backs of this series of cards look like. They each describe the events taking place in the art.
