Video - 1966 BATMAN TV Show - All 14 Window Cameos

One of the fun things they did during the 1966 BATMAN TV Show was the "Window Cameo". Every now and then Batman & Robin would be climbing up the side of a building in Gotham City & a window would open with a special guest to interact with. It was a favorite part of the show for many viewers & the list includes: Jerry Lewis, Dick Clark, Green Hornet ( Van Williams ) and Kato ( Bruce Lee ), Sammy Davis Jr., Jose Jimenez ( Bill Dana ), Howard Duff as Detective Sam Stone on "Felony Squad", Colonel Klink ( Werner Klemperer ), Lurch ( Ted Cassidy ), Don Ho, Andy Devine as Santa Claus, Art Linkletter, Edward G. Robinson, Suzy Knickerbocker, and The Carpet King ( real name unknown ).

Christopher's BATMAN AND ROBIN TATTOO ART Photos

Check out this totally incredible tattoo of The Dynamic Duo, Batman and Robin! Christopher, a new friend to the Bat-Blog, was kind enough to share these wonderful pics of his Batman tattoo. The artwork comes from the original art for the Whitman 1966 Batman Coloring Book. Using an image that is sort of iconic is very cool. I totally love all the old coloring book covers & this is a great choice. The Tattoo Artist here did a fine job with the colors too. I wanna thank Christopher for sharing these nice pics & if any other Bat-Blog Fans out there get some ink done then please be sure to shoot us some photos. 'Cause, we're ALL about Bat-Fandom around here!

Check out this extremely cool BATMAN Birthday Cake!! These photos were sent in by a Bat-Blog Fan named Scott. This awesome cake was for his son Noah, who just turned 13 ( Happy Birthday Noah! ) The cake has two levels. The bottom has graphics around it that looks like the skyline of Gotham City.
