Vintage 1940's Golden Age Comic Book Cover: BATMAN #47

My friend John recently bought this Vintage Golden Age Batman Comic Book and was kind enough to send us this beautifully scanned photo of the front/back cover ( Be sure to click on the small picture to see a large, more detailed, photo ). This is issue #47 which was a Special Origin story. I love the retro-style Batmobile & the very cool Bat-Plane! Even the back cover is kinda cool what with the Red Ryder BB Gun ad. It reminds me of the Christmas Story movie where Ralphie's mom keeps saying,"No, you can't have a Red Ryder, you'll shoot your eye out!". Thanks for the great pic John! If any other readers have photos of Batman items from their collections then please send them today!
