BATMAN (DC Comics / superhero) inflatable doll

  This vinyl doll of Batman is inflatable through an air tube in the middle of his back.   When fully inflated, this item stands nearly two feet tall.  Batman is shown with his arms raised above his head, wearing a silver Batsuit, blue cowl, blue gloves, blue boots, yellow utility belt, and a yellow-and-black Bat-emblem on his chest.   This item was manufactured in Japan, but there is no indication who made it or when it was made.  In all likelihood, this is a 1970s item.  It has only slight traces of paint wear and a few tiny marks on it.  Batman holds his air pretty well, although he does seem to have a very slow leak somewhere that we have not been able to locate.  Overall, he is in EX+ condition.

BATMAN (DC Comics / superhero) print putty

  This nifty, vintage-era Batman item is also a rare find.  It is a print putty set, similar to Silly Putty, designed to be placed on top of a comic book or newspaper, pressed into place, and then removed . . . with some of the image onto which it was pressed coming off on the print putty itself.  This item is in mint, unused condition and it is still sealed inside of its original clear-plastic blisterpack and still mounted on its original 7.25" cardboard mounting card.  The mounting card is shaped like Batman and his cape, and the cover of the "magic print paper" has colorful graphics of Robin and Batman running along a dock together, with Gotham City behind them.  This item was manufactured in 1966 by Colorforms.  The mounting card has some wear along the pointy lower parts made to resemble Batman's cape and one crease in the middle of Batman's face, as shown in our photographs.  Otherwise, this item is virtually perfect--about as nice as you could ever expect or hope for, especially for such an old item of this type!
