Vintage 1960's OFFICIAL BATMAN TV SHOW Character Rings - Gumball Vending Machine Header Cards
The real main focus of the Bat-Blog is to share the love of collecting all the cool Batman Toys, especially the Vintage Memorabilia! Here are a few examples of some Gumball Machine Header Cards featuring OFFICIAL BATMAN Character Rings. They were made by the Lawson Novelty Company in 1966. It looks like these rings were made out of rubber & there were 4 to collect. Two of them are sort of a Bust of Batman and Robin. The other two look like a Batmobile Car & Bat-Symbol Logo...awesome! These cards were what you would have seen inside the Gumball Machine to advertise the prize you could get. I don't remember seeing these as a little kid but I know I would have gone totally batty wanting one, ha ha! In fact, I would totally love to have these now! ( Thanks to Jimmy for sending the cool pics ).
