Our good friend Charles "Chunky B" over at the ECLECTORAMA website send us some really great photos of this amazing piece of Batman Memorabilia! It's an original sales brochure from the Glastron Boat Co. They were the makers of the original Bat-Boat as seen in the 1966 Batman movie with Adam West & Burt Ward. Charles used to have some so-workers who actually worked there. In fact, one of the guys was in charge of test-driving the thing. Yeah, oh my god...they wouldn't have to pay me to do that, ha ha! One of them kept one of these brochures. ( Be sure to click on the photos up above for larger, more readable, versions ). Charles has a really neat story about it at his website. Here's a link button to check it out but please remember to BOOKMARK the Bat-Blog before ya go!
