Vintage Magazines with a 1966 TV Batman Theme




One area of Batman Collecting that some collectors like to get into are the old Vintage Magazine Covers that feature Batman in some way. Here are 2 really great examples. One cover has a story about "Batman Getting Married" & it's kinda weird. It's the May 1966 issue of Pageant Magazine, which I guess was directed towards marriage-minded women...OUCH! The art direction on this is very provocative. Speaking of "provocative", the next cover features our favorite Catwoman, Julie Newmar...MEOW! It's the June 1964 issue of LOOK Magazine. Wow, it came out 2 years before the Batman TV Show. Anyway, she looks as lovely as ever as she prepares an outdoor meal, ha ha!
