Found this cool ad for Corgi's Batmobile and cleaned it up some. Great stuff.

Somewhere I have a picture of a custom corgi with that Batman figure fully painted. Lost the auction, but what a great image when properly painted. Amazing how many action features they put in that car. Always my favorite.

Perfect timing. I just purchased one like this on eBay from a shop in the UK.

I got one from the UK to compare it to this one-- it looks like it's a copy of the original I found. The UK one is nice but it's printed on high gloss paper which causes a sheen.

Awesome. thanks for sharing. I think the Batmobile I had in the 70s was a Corgi, but, by then, they didn't have the cool gadgets on them.

Absolutely love it! Thanks, Andy. Brings me back to a time in the late '60s into the '70s when this stuff was electrifying and cool. Too bad Corgi doesn't issue a new line but I suppose we get into the Mattel thing again. It would also be neat if Corgi would reissue all the old original celebrity TV and movie cars in the original style boxes.

Very nice. I’m going to print a copy and display it with my Corgi Batmobile.

Great to see.
It's definitely from England. The clue can be found at the bottom of the page where it says the new Corgi catalogue can be purchased for '4d'.
That's four old Londinium pennies 😉

I also like the mini adverts for the other Corgi’s. Along with my Corgi Batmobile, I also have the 007 Aston Martin DB5 and U.N.C.L.E. Thrush Buster.
