Strange BATMAN Advertising From Argentina!

Here's a really weird piece of Batman history I came across the other day. It's a picture of an advertisement that might have appeared in a vintage comic book. I'm pretty sure that it is from Argentina. It features Batman, Robin, & Jim Gordon. It looks like they are trying to sell Strawberry Yogurt??? It's made to look like a comic book page & it's titled "El Acertijo", which means, "The Riddler". But, the Riddler character is NOT in the ad...yes, very strange. If anybody can read this, or knows about its origin, then please let us know.

  1. Batman - the Riddler has sent us another of his enigmas. I need you to decipher it.
    Don't worry, Comissioner, I'm on my way.
    This is the message, Batman: what is it you drink for breakfast...enjoy in the midday...and then is a delicious dessert?
    Very easy, Comissioner...
    What is it Batman?
    Yogurt with Basque Fruit - "Bati-Fru"
    Holy Yogurt, Batman!

  4. Well, the Riddler is in it, but only because the message they are trying to decipher was sent by him...
