The 1966 Batman Message Board

Ads for the 1966 Gleem promotion indicate that, “On Thursday, October 20 on the Batman show, Batman will show the winning cards”...meaning ‘action scenes’ that were given away at Gleem toothpaste displays at stores. Does anyone recall this promotion? Was Adam West actually filmed as Batman showing t...

Captain Action Batman for me too. I remember as a kid staring at the CA ads in the comics wishing I had one. I was born the year they were released but in the early’70s had access to several comics from ‘66 and ‘67 that featured the ads. My current one is my second one; I, too, sold my first one and...

The actor does a really nice job with it. It’s obvious he studied Adam West’s moves.

Are there others available? If so, please PM me too. Thanks.

I’m going to try to get an MP3 of it and add it to my TV show soundtrack CD that I keep in my car. It’s fantastic!

How would you do that? Were you successful?

There are dozens of free online YouTube to mp3 converters. I saved both the short and long versions.

Thanks for the link, Andy. That collection is absolutely INSANE. I thought I’d seen it all and there’s countless items I didn't have an idea existed. Amazing.

Looks like a pretty quality set. I’d really like to see them.

This is a nice tease (I don’t recall seeing the photo before), but I’d like to see full coverage of the premiere. The article states it’s a premiere for the TV show but of course it was for the movie.

Awesome! Never heard of this, but I found a longer video that gives all the clues in the contest (as narrated by Batman and Robin), and shows some promotional imagery as well.

And here's the solution to the puzzle.

Thank you for posting the longer version as well. These are truly great.

This is great news. I would have liked to have seen Burt on Gotham but this will do.

These aren’t available on the Sweet website yet.

Very interesting. Thanks for posting.

The whole “Commissioner Gordon knows Bruce is Batman” arc takes the story nowhere and is completely out of place in this script. It’s truly pointless. The Joker is also underused. I like the gothic parts with the old, secluded house but, other then that, it’s a pretty awful script.

So...was the foliage that surrounded the entrance of the cave in the TV show added for the filming, or has the landscape changed that much in 50+ years? Obviously I know the “door” was added...
