Little Kid's BATMAN FLIK FLAK WATCH Child-Size

I have a friend who lives in Bulgaria & he told me that they got a new BATMAN WATCH at the store his Mother works at. I'm talking about a company called FLIK FLAK WATCHES. They are owned by the famous SWATCH WATCH Company & make very high-quality products. Well, this year they made a special Batman Child-Size Wristwatch & it's awesome...check out the pics! I also included a link button to the actual website, in case ya wanna order one ( buy me one too because Christmas is coming & it would make a great gift idea, ha ha! ).

Vintage 1960's BATMAN TOYS and MEMORABILIA To Drool Over!

I have been covering a lot of news lately about a lot of the brand-new Batman Toys that are out there to collect & thought I'd do a post about some wonderful old vintage toys. The 1st photo is an amazing piece of Bat-History & also quite rare. It's the 1966 BATMAN BAT-WATCH by Amsco. This item is really beautiful. I mean the watch, with moving bat-hands, is very cool but the vintage graphics on the card are really great! I like the bright simple primary colors...nice! The next piece has a lot of graphic style also. It's an original bread wrapper for BATMAN BREAD! It too is from the mid-1960's. This pic was sent in by a Bat-Blog Reader named Wes who wanted to share this rare piece in his personal collection ( Thank You Wes ). The last photo is an item that is probably the most rare of all. It's a Justice League of America Rubber-Figure Set, Mint on Original Card. It was made by Multiple Toymakers ©1967. The figures include: Aquaman, Superman, Batman, & Wonder Woman. One thing about it that totally cracks me up is the original retail price back then was 19 cents!! Do you have any Vintage Batman Toys or Memorabilia in your toy collection that you would like to share? If so, then please e-mail us a photo today! The Bat-Blog is all about sharing the love of collecting, thanks.

RARE Vintage Batman Watches & Jewelry

DC Comics has marketed Batman into every product you can imagine. One of my favorite catagories are the watches & jewelry mainly because they are sort of RARE & obscure. Here's some classic examples of Bat-Jewelry Memorabilia. The 1st picture really isn't a watch but it kind of is. It's a 1966 Batman Flashlight Watch! It's shown here with the original ad that you could have used to order it & it also came with a small pocket flashlight. These babies are extremely RARE & very hard-to-find! The 2nd example is a classic! This Vintage Batman Wrist-Watch was made by DABS & COMPANY in the 1970's. It's shown here with it's original display box. They also made a Shazam, Superman, & Wonder Woman watch too but who cares, ha ha. They also made a RARE Joker Watch but I didn't have a pic of it at the moment ( not shown ). The 3rd item is something that I would love to find because it's super RARE, almost a museum piece. This is a Batman Pocket-Watch made by the Ingraham Watch Company. Not sure of the exact date but the graphics are really retro-looking. I'm guessing it's from the 1970's or early 80's. The next piece of jewelry is a really fun item. This is a "Flicker Ring" that was made for the Canadian market. It has a 3-D picture that bounces back & forth from Robin to Batman ( Burt Ward & Adam West ). This is really cool! The last picture shows a few examples of Vintage 1966 Batman Jewelry items: Pins, Brooches, & Key Rings.These are shown on their original display cards & are pretty hard-to-find in MINT shape....enjoy! Be sure to check the BAT-BLOG ARCHIVES for many more examples of RARE Batman items & toys. We have over 500 posts to drool over. See you tommorrow!

RARE Vintage 1950's Batman & Robin Ingersoll Pocket Watch

Here's a nice reference photo of the SUPER-RARE 1957 Batman & Robin Pocket Watch made by Ingersoll. I love the vintage graphics & it's really unusual to find ANY Batman merchandise pre-1966. Most Batman collectibles start from 1966 & it's really hard to find anything from the 1940's & 50's. Ingersoll was a classic watch company known for making great character watches. In fact, they almost went out of business during the depression except they had a great idea to make the very 1st Mickey Mouse Watch, the 1st character watch! The sales of that item went thru the roof & saved the company! This one featuring Batman & Robin is extremely RARE & sought out by both Batman Fans & Character Watch Collectors as a holy grail. They usually bring about $500+ in auction, loose.
