Notes
Discovered in the office of Marcel Van Cleemput the chief designer for Corgi, this is just a sample of the many ephemera items given to the MBU Collector as a thank you for his help with ‘The Great Book of Corgi’.
One of the most exciting models ever produced by Corgi – and here we have a little of the inspirational ‘paperwork’ that helped to create the Corgi 267 Batmobile!
Barris Kustom City created the innovative features of The Batmobile from the Batman ABC television series:
“This automotive wonder was styled and engineered with the many special effects innovations by Barris Kustom City, North Hollywood, California, and is insured for one million dollars.”
