Thanks for sharing this Steve. I often wondered who the Aston-esque Riddler was in a version of that image that I saw years ago.

Forget about the Penguin. Batman must now fend off... the Elephant:

These are really cool newspaper clippings!
Great research.
I notice The Detroit Free Press, have you ever come across any listing service for a Batman and Robin appearance at a Toys r Us in the Detroit suburb of Southgate? '71- '72? That event polarized my life.
