The New Adventures of Batman and Robin (Columbia, 1949). Three Sheet (41" X 81").
The Caped Crusader and Boy Wonder make their second big screen appearance in this followup to producer Sam Katzman's thrill packed chapterplay, Batman (1943). Robert Lowery and Johnny Duncan (replacing Lewis Wilson and Douglas Croft from the first serial) star as the Dynamic Duo, pitted against a hooded villain called the Wizard who possesses a weapon that can be used to remotely control any type of vehicle. Offered here is the exceptionally rare three sheet poster (unlike the one sheets, larger paper was not associated with a particular chapter) featuring a stunningly bold image of the title characters along with gorgeous Jane Adams as Vicki Vale. Superb professional restoration has corrected condition problems such as pinholes, edge wear with chips, and tears in the border and image. There was some fold wear with crossfold separations and fold separations with chips out, and some fading, with colors enhanced via restoration. The poster has a fresh, vivid appearance, and given its rarity, can easily be considered a "holy grail" for this title in particular, and Batman collectors in general. We have never sold this poster before and believe it to be very rare. Good/Very Good on Linen.
