Great eye for detail. "Way... Way Out" was a Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation movie with a release date of 10-21-1966. The first GH premier was 9-9-66 so perhaps the film wrapped up and was in production and the exact same desk was reused on the Britt's office set!

The bust in Britt's living room was recycled over a year later in one of the last Batman episodes, "I'll Be A Mummy's Uncle" sitting on the psychiatrist's file cabinet.

Hello Batwinged Hornet

"The bust in Britt's living room"

Would you be referring to the white bust that Kato handles in e20 "Ace in the Hole" starting at 00:06:42?

Sorry for the very late reply, but yes, that is the same bust prop used in the final Tut episode.
