Notes
This is the first, more desirable issue (1967-70) Batboat with a tinplate fin (later issues had a plastic fin). In exceptional condition throughout and in particular the first issue card box is the best we have ever seen. Impeccable!
This Batboat on Trailer is a rare variation with pale purple-blue screens. With bright and fresh complete paper labels on both sides, both seated figures of Batman and Robin and an attractive, beautifully detailed tinplate fin (later issues were plastic). Notably intact dashboard chrome. Bright gold trailer with detailed cast wheels.
This item comes complete with the black towing hook accessory piece which could be used to attach it to the first issue Batmobile (without tow hook).
The card box with atmospheric graphics, is a work of art in itself! A remarkable find in this pristine state.
Note that this box issue has ‘National Periodical Publications inc. 1966’ printed, no Spare Tyre information printed on an end flap and no ‘Colour of contents may differ…’
Period ’WH Smith price label on an end flap. Corgi Club Memberhsip Form.
