I haven't seen this one before. Adam West with a young girl behind the camera.

Julie Newmar with ?

That was director Robert Sparr, who was tragically killed in a plane crash in 1969.

Are you sure the little girl with Adam isn't his daughter?

I Love shots like this. These images are VERY large. Click for full size.

I saw that last shot on the racehorse on EBay a little while ago, under the heading of Yvonne.
Quite clearly it is the stuntperson (i recall somewhere that it was actually a StuntMAN used for Yvonne's racing double) and not Yvonne in that photo!!
Hate to think people mistook that rider for the real Yvonne!

The only way that could be Yvonne in the shot on the horse is if she hit the caterer's table for a huge lunch before she got on the horse.

It is her stunt double. It was a man, but I don't remember who. I remember her saying once they had only one Batgirl suit and they had to wear the same one and was given back to her and it was all sweaty inside. Ewwww!

I wonder about that; he looks pretty stocky - did the suit's material stretch that much? Plus it's not that tight on his arms and legs; would have been even looser on Yvonne.

They must have slapped something together for the shot. For a long shot it wouldn't have to look great (and it doesn't!). I can't imagine that particular suit could have been Yvonne's. Certainly not the pants! I wonder if Hubie Kerns had his own suit? That reminds me, I remember Yvonne mentioned in an interview in 'Starlog', when they brought up the idea that Adam was out of shape, as fanboys with big guts & ponytails often did back in the Keaton nerf-Batman era -- she said no, Adam was in great shape, but she was surprised that they used a guy with a pot belly to double for him. Which I suppose may have perpetuated the myth that Adam West was "fat".

A combination of how high the utility belt was worn in relation to his rather prominent rib cage from certain angles has been mistaken for his stomach in the past, these moments were particularly pronounced in the first half of Season One.

As the series went on the earlier "lace" fastening of the belts Adam and Hubie wore became replaced by elastic resulting a custom fit rather than a specific size which looked at times like it was holding their internal organs in place.

I also suspect that the Minerva opening scene with a shirtless and very fit and trim Adam may have been the producers' way of letting people know Batman didn't have a beer belly.

There's a lot of good photos at Getty Images I have never seen before.

Is Getty Images still uploading new (old) photos?
